Indeed. We use .Em very sparingly in manual pages because too much
markup tends to look ugly, because manual pages tend to have quite a
bit of markup from semantical macros already, and because .Em can
sometimes be mistaken for semantical markup rather than stress
emphasis. So i removed the .Em before i committed this, see the
commit below.
