Comment(by matt...@…):

 This isn't actually a Groff issue, it's just the fact that my font,
 lat1-16, doesn't contain the symbol U+2010 (UTF-8 \xe2 \x80 \x90).

 If I am reading
 http://homepage.ntlworld.com/zarniwhoop/consolefonts/sigma.html correctly,
 a console font can only contain 512 glyphs (including bold variations of
 the same character).

 Ken, any ideas if it's possible to work out from the .psfu file, whether
 there's space to add another couple of glyphs to lat1-16?  GCC spits out
 some '?' too, when it prints some fancy warnings out, so it'd be nice to
 get that symbol added, while we're at it.

 Or maybe we should add sigma-consolefonts to the book (assuming it
 contains the correct glyphs)? :)
