page for which you appear to be responsible.  If you are not the right
person or list, please tell me so I can correct my database.

See http://catb.org/~esr/doclifter/bugs.html for details on how and
why these patches were generated.  Feel free to email me with any

any manual page.  You may wish to do that by hand.

I apologize if this message seems spammy or impersonal. The volume of
markup bugs I am tracking is over five hundred - there is no real

Problems with uscan.1:

Ambiguous or invalid backslash.  This doesn't cause groff a problem.
but it confuses doclifter and may confuse older troff implementations.

Problems with rc-alert.1:

Use local definitions of .EX/.EE or .DS/.DE to avoid low-level troff
requests in the page body.  There are plans to add these to groff man;
in the interim, this patch adds a compatible definition to your page.
