I agree that this is a problem - but I still cannot reproduce this, and it
means I won't be able to confirm any fix:
ajk at kukkaseppele:~$ LANG=en_US.UTF8 man grep-dctrl | fgrep "apt|dpkg" | od -c
0000000 % g r e p - s t
0000020 a t u s - P - e ' a p t |
0000040 d p k g ' \n
0000046
Perhaps there's some groff (or man) configuration matter involved?

There is no translated man page.
