Ah, that's because setup.py is looking for the man page and not
finding it because you hadn't built the docs.  If you'd built the docs
or commented out the data_files argument in setup.py you wouldn't get
the error.

My first guesses are that it's either a Sphinx 0.6.4 issue or a locale
issue.  If you're using a UTF-8 locale:
  $ locale
  LANG=en_US.UTF-8
  ...
you could try upgrading to a more recent version of Sphinx.  Not the
development version (1.0b2), however, because it doesn work with
numpydoc:
