This is just a random hack to work around problems people seem
to be seeing in manpage backend of xmlto (it appears we are
getting ".sp" at the end of line without line break).

Could people test this out?

This fixes the files available in the man branch of git.git.

Thanks.

P.S. I have this fragment in config.mak to install the manpages without
asciidoc. 

man:
	git-archive --format=tar --prefix=${prefix}/man/ man | tar xP
install: man

.PHONY: man

It's tempting to take it, but that is chicken and egg for me
;-).
