The one class of quoting problems seems to be fixed. 

remaining:

include/std/istream:403: Returns @c getline(s,n,widen('\n'))
include/std/istream:363: Returns @c getline(s,n,widen('\n'))
include/std/istream:330: Returns @c get(s,n,widen('\n'))

which translates to:

.PP
Returns \fCget\fP(sb,widen('
.br
')). 
.PP

quoting the backslash, I get this output (man not complaining anymore)
   template<typename _CharT, typename _Traits> __istream_type&
std::basic_istream< _CharT, _Traits >::get
       (char_type * __s, streamsize __n) [inline, inherited]
       Simple multiple-character extraction. Parameters:
           s Pointer to an array.
           n Maximum number of characters to store in s.

       Returns:
           *this

       Returns get(s,n,widen('\n')).

       Definition at line 333 of file istream.

the other errors in the *distribution man pages are from using latex macros.
