 This adds bogus quoting.

 It should remove this bogus quoting.

 Bogus quoting of "void" is used in about 1100 lines in section 3
 man pages (counting links multiply).  It is most common in man pages
 for software that doesn't use anything resembling BSD style (e.g.,
 VGL, archive, dialog and, readline account for about 2/3 of the 1100
 lines).
