It has to be just "\fR", "\fB", ".sp" and ".br", not weird unicode stuff.

Which versions of asciidoc and docbook-xsl are you using?

As the filename and comments imply, those weird Unicode characters were specifically for docbook-xsl 1.72.0. They were used in a "misguided" character replacement scheme (this behavior was reverted after 1.72.0). See the 'manpage' sections of the docbook-xsl release notes for some info on this:

<http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/RELEASE- NOTES.html#V1.72.0_Manpages> <http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/RELEASE- NOTES.html#V1.73.0_Manpages>

If you are not using docbook-xsl 1.72.0, you should not be using manpage-1.72.xsl.

There have been some changes to the documentation generation options since 1.6.2. If you are able, get the most recent 1.6.3 release candidate, read the asciidoc and docbook-xsl comments in the Makefile, define your make settings accordingly, and try again (asciidoc 8.4.1 is broken for at least one of the pages, 8.4.2 and later seem OK).

asciidoc-8.4.4, docbook-style-xsl-1.73.2.

Yep. Despite of using docbook-xsl 1.73.2 git was built with DOCBOOK_XSL_172=1. Without this option manual pages looks correct.
