Yes it does complain about the acute-accented-e, unfortunately. The
groff extension does stop it complaining, but of course that means it
isn't pure roff anymore.
However in debian that might not be a problem (groff might be essential.
The package is priority: optional, but it might be implicitly
essential). It would be only a very minor patch for me to maintain - I
will dig.

Neither am I yet - still trying to unravel how this works. I gather
./deutex.6 is derived from ./docsrc/deutex.6, but isn't re-built on each
make clean; make cycle. I see ./unixtmp1/deutex.6 is built from `deutex
-man`. I haven't read much further.
