Hmm. I also did the upgrade from Breezy, and also had Bitstream instead of DejaVu selected.

Unsetting LANG isn't an elegant solution to the console man page problem. It seems that the manual pages are following bad practice and using old glyphs as defined in ASCII/ANSI X3.4/ISO 646. There's a big discussion on the topic at http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs/quotes.html .
