Subject: 23.1; man.el{,c} fails to load when utf-8 mode enabled
Date: Sun, 28 Mar 2010 17:35:15 -0700 (PDT)

In my .emacs, I have:

  (set-terminal-coding-system 'utf-8)
  (set-keyboard-coding-system 'utf-8)

When I invoke M-x man, I get an invalid byte when trying to load
either the man.el or the man.elc.

Workaround is to (load "man") before turning on utf-8 mode.
