} This sounds rather cumbersome since it would mean that you need
} parts of groff (line-wrapping and several special code) implemented
} in perl.

No, you misunderstand.  Perl would still run and read the man|colcrt
pipeline, but all the environment setup and locale testing would be
done in perl instead of in shell.  Convert generate-help.sh into perl,
but not the external commands generate-help.sh runs.
