Hi Dorai,
> I have the environment variable GROFF_ENCODING globally set to utf8
That's the cause. It implies groff's -k option, invoking preconv(1).
$ preconv <<<'.de ΒΆ'
.lf 1 -
.de \[u00B6]
$
So troff and nroff accept 0xb6, or UTF-8's 0xc2 0xb6, without a care,
but preconv filters it out first.
Cheers, Ralph.
