Subject: [PATCH 3/6] time.1, getxattr.2, setxattr.2, sk98lin.4,
string_copying.7: srcfix
Drop spurious, nilpotent uses of *roff `\c` escape sequence.
Quoting groff_man_style(7):
\c End a text line without inserting space or attempting a break.
Normally, if filling is enabled, the end of a text line is
treated like a space; an output line _may_ be broken there (if
not, an adjustable space is inserted); if filling is disabled,
the line _will_ be broken there, as in .EX/.EE examples. The
next line is interpreted as usual and can include a macro call
(contrast with \newline). \c is useful when three font styles
are needed in a single word, as in a command synopsis.
