There are three man pages that need these updates, and I go over each
change to make sure it's what's intended (e.g., sometimes double quote
is part of the syntax being described and should be typeset one way, and
sometimes it's just a double quote quoting something in a string and
should be typeset a different way). This last set will be there in the
next devel branch push.
