The example was originally intended to have a literal backslash in it, but
'\ ' is interpreted by nroff as a non-breaking space.
It doesn't make much difference to the example, but the non-breaking
space triggers a bug in doclifter.

Tomi sortof convinced me on IRC that \e was a better choice that \\. I
also looked at the groff manual, but that mostly encouraged me to work
more on converting to something other than *roff.

pushed this second version, although hopefully it will soon be obsolete.
