Follow-up Comment #11, bug #57594 (project groff):

[comment #9 comment #9:]

Great!

Right, but I asked this in the context of my proposal in comment #7; that is,
that in the groff tree we could iconv each UTF-8 TeX file to an appropriate
groff-digestible format before git committing it, at least until the more
ambitious solution outlined in comment #4 comes to pass.  This would not be
the prettiest solution, but it would be trivial to script.
