commit 552cdca93eae2fec69d536d215ad203e7741e850
Author: G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>
Date:   Sun Nov 4 13:07:04 2018 -0500

    Build meintro_fr.me correctly on non-UTF-8 host.

            * doc/meintro_fr.me: Add encoding hint to top of file so preconv
            works correctly even if the build environment's encoding is not
            UTF-8.  Adapted from Bjarni Ingi Gislason's patch.  Also add
            long-form Emacs coding declaration at end of file.  Vim's
            auto-detection seems to be fine, so did not update its modeline.

            Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?54530>.

Confirmed.  If LC_CTYPE=en_US, for instance:


  GROFF    doc/meintro_fr.ps
troff: <standard input>:63: warning: can't find special character 'u00A0'
troff: <standard input>:122: warning: can't find special character 'u0080'
troff: <standard input>:155: warning: can't find special character 'u0089'

Subject: [PATCH] doc/meintro_fr.me: Add a line about the used coding in the
 file

  "preconv" needs an explicit coding information to do its work
correctly, when "locale -k charmap" is different from the used coding
in the file.
