iconv error causes docbook2x to fail when building docs from xml source

[andreas--e]

This is what I just got with the following line:
my@lubuntubox:~/test2/conky/doc$ docbook2x-man docs.xml

/usr/bin/iconv: illegal input sequence at position 7781
/usr/bin/db2x_manxml: program in pipeline exited with an error

I dunno why it complains.
FWIW, here's my version list:

docbook-xml 4-5-7.2
docbook-xsl 1.78.1+dfsg-1
docbook2x 0.8.8-9

Yes! Closed
(however it's actually #91 which is a duplicate report of mine, as mine is from roughly one year ago :-))
