[Groff] Special characters and font escapes

[Michael(tm) Smith]

I have a file containing the following and am viewing it with
groff 1.18.1 in an en_US.UTF-8 environment.

.SH "AUTHOR"
.PP
\fBSebastian\fR \fBDr\(:oge\fR
.sp -1n
.IP "" 3n
Author.
.SH "COPYRIGHT"
Copyright \(co 2005 Sebastian Dr\(:oge

The second instance of "Dr\(:oge" displays correctly, but the
"\fBDr\(:oge\fR" instance does not (depending on which X shell I
try it in, it either displays a replacement character, blank
space, or some other character).

Is this a known issue? Any way to work around it?
