ok, i figured it out myself. i double checked my environment, and
found that the LC_CTYPE was set the "en_US.UTF8". but i do not
understand why it compiles my 'mplayer' to display chinese. after i
changed the LC_CTYPE value to "en_US" and recompile 'mplayer', the
output info becomes english, and the man page is back.
