That's your problem, right there: your locale is Latin-1, but the man
pages were generated for a UTF-8 locale. This mismatch is the root
cause of the problem you are having.
The solution for you would be to change your locale to be a UTF-8
locale, i.e. a locale which uses UTF-8 as its codeset. Then Emacs
will default to UTF-8 when it decodes the man page, and you will see
the hyphen characters instead of binary bytes.
