Comment:

 the test_from_man_when_manual_is_unavailable() test needs to also include
 the patch() line for HAS_ENCODING_ARG.  otherwise, it'll still run
 and since the resulting command = 'man -P cat tor' (on bsd, mac and
 slackware),
 won't be equal to 'man --encoding=ascii -P cat tor' ..   it'll fail.

 https://github.com/ewongbb/stem/tree/fix_test_from_man_unavailable

 this should fix it.
