The .Ql macro is different in nroff (-Tascii) and troff (-Tps) modes in mdoc(7). (The difference is documented in the mdoc(7) manpage.) In troff mode, .Ql internally uses the .Li macro to print arguments in "literal" font. In nroff mode, .Ql is merely equivalent to .Sq, but in fact it shold be equivalent to .Sq Li. I will fix it.
