Let's me dig into man-db's source.

Looks like we can, updated patch is comming.

Anyway, man-db uses an extension of glibc's iconv.
Thus, it warns this on musl-libc:

> mandb: iconv_open ("UTF-8//IGNORE", "us-ascii"): Invalid argument

Is it worth to patch man-db ourself to remove `//IGNORE` on musl?
