The reason the spaces are there, is to make sure that nroff properly
breaks if the line gets wider than the screenwidth.  I full well realise
that this doesn't help when copy-pasting, and also that if the manpage
is not viewed using nroff, but some kind of webviewer, they should be
taken out.

Not quite sure what the best solution is.  Maybe they should simply be
taken out, considering that most people don't view manpages through a
traditional "man" interface anymore.

The irony is, the spaces are deliberately put in after parsing, it's no
accident.
