No, the poster most definitely meant to write man.conf instead of
make.conf.
That would be correct.
But his output looks like he already gets UTF-8 out of "man". He just
borked his terminal settings or is running a non-Unicode terminal.
Otherwise, there would just be one glyph for an unrecognized code
sequence, plus probably the following char being eaten.
So to the OP: Configure your terminal accordingly (for console: set
consoletrans and -font correctly) or if you didn't yet, install a
unicode-aware terminal program.
