Thanks for finding the problematic spots which I've updated in the
CVS. BTW, I had to change many of your fixes. For example, this:
.TP
-.BI .TH " title section " [ extra1 "] [" extra2 "] [" extra3 ]
+.BI .TH " title section " [ extra1 "] [" extra2\c
+.BI "] [" extra3 ]
won't work: `TP' sets an input line trap to get its arguments, and a
line continued after `\c' counts as a new input line. I have to use
this which is much uglier compared to the old version:
.TP
.BI .TH " title section \fB[\fPextra1\fB]\fP \fB[\fPextra2\fB]\fP
\fB[\fPextra3\fB]"
