catopen() is an atavism. As opposed to gettext(), it won't convert the message to the user's encoding (e.g. gettext displays Russian messages using koi8-r encoding if the locale is ru_RU.KOI8-R, or in UTF-8 if the locale is ru_RU.UTF-8). Also Russian translation of man's messages (like "which manual page do you want?") is broken anyway (it refers to a human being and a domestic animal). Better disable NLS in man at all: ./configure +lang none -the-rest-of-options -- Alexander E.
