Weird characters in man pages

[Wes Barris]

I just installed Cygwin 1.7.1 and Puttycyg 20091228.  When I viewed
a man page I saw the letter 'a' with two dots above it instead of
'-' characters.  So, knowing that Cygwin 1.7 now used UTF-8, I changed
my character translation set in Puttycyg to UTF-8 for my Cygwin
session.  Now man pages have fat half-height vertical bars instead
of '-' characters.  I don't know if this is a Putty, Puttycyg, or
Cygwin issue.  I am asking here in case anyone has any insight about
this issue.  Thanks.
