>Description:

	When I format assorted man pages, a certain class of errors show
        up.  As these all seem very similar, I have folded them into a
        single PR.

        Most of the errors have to do with ".Li" arguments, via the ".Ql"
        macro.  It looks like a fix to the macro is needed...

>How-To-Repeat:

	"groff -man" the man pages or, alternatively,
	"groff -te -mandoc -mtty-char -Tps" them...

>Fix:

	See below.
