 As there were no objections to this, I took the liberty to just erase
 these symbols from the file. The resulting html page and man file appear
 easily readable to me and I don't think that this issue warrants changing
 g.html2man.

 Leaving this ticket open for now in case anyone objects now or in case
 someone sees the same problem in another man page.
