Done! See revision 1.43 of handbook/mirrors/chapter.sgml.

Well spotted!

This is a tricky problem to solve. I've had a quick look into it but
had no luck. Perhaps someone else on the list can help?

The problem is that there is a &#160; (&nbsp;) in the SGML source.
When the SGML gets converted to HTML, the escaping is lost. I've
tried putting &amp;160# in the SGML source, but that doesn't produce
the desired result either.

This problem appears to be manifesting itself throughout the site.
The &copy; used in page footers is being converted to an un-escaped
copyright symbol in HTML, for example.

Can anyone on freebsd-doc figure out a solution to this? If not,
I'll file a new PR.

Regards,
Tom
