Log Message:
-----------
In -Tutf8 mode, mandoc_char(7) named accent character escape sequences 
have to render as non-combining accents; if you want combining accents, 
you have to explicitly specify them using the Unicode character numbers 
for combining accents, or you can use character escape sequences for
accented characters.  This lets mandoc behave like groff.

Additionally, both the Ossanna/Kernighan/Ritter troff manual and 
the GNU troff manual say that \' and \` are equivalent to \(aa and
\(ga, respectively, so do the same for these.  This mitigates issues
with man(7) code autogenerated by texinfo2man(1), which mistranslates
TeX ` and ' to \` and \' instead of \(oq and \(cq as reported by 
sthen@ and as analyzed by bentley@.
