Now that compare-strings is more rigidly bounds checking, the function
Man-softhyphen-to-minus is signalling an error when I have
current-language-environment set to "UTF-8".

I think 

	(compare-strings "latin-" 0 nil current-language-environment 0 6 t)

should probably be

	(compare-strings "latin-" 0 nil current-language-environment 0 nil t)


I'm not sure what the current rules of the tree are, so I didn't want to
commit this myself.

Dupe of http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=17903.
I've been waiting a month now for a comment.

This change isn't documented, brings no user-visible benefit AFAICS
(rather the opposite), and I see no interest in fixing the problems it
creates.
