      Explanation:

      <br>
      Hunk 1 corrects a missing newline that caused the man program to
      not recognize a new table section.
      <br>
      <br>
      Hunk 2 prevents that redundant white space, introduced into in an
      xml source document by the xml editor program[*], is copied
      verbatim into the text of a manpage table cell, thus compromising
      alignment of the text.
