Thanks for the report.
I'm marking this as closed, since the generated man.1 file seems to be ok.
Feel free to reopen if you find it's still a problem:

    $ grep 'locale.*date.rep' man/date.1
    locale's date representation (e.g., 12/31/99)

 Hi there,

reading through the man page for date,  I found this two that look like a typo, (â) I guess I could be wrong, but:
 %x    localeâs date representation (e.g., 12/31/99)
 %X     localeâs time representation (e.g., 23:13:48)


Regards,
tsener
