Avoid po4a confusion with \c
po4a >= 0.58 (I think) changes its handling of \c slightly, resulting in
incorrect output for the admittedly awkward uses of \c in man(1).
Rearrange markup to avoid this.
* man/man1/man.man1 (OVERVIEW): Recast description of the syntax of
locale environment variables using \f[BIR] rather than .B/.RI and \c.
(Controlling formatted output): Coalesce markup for the default prompt
into a single .BI macro, avoiding the need for \c. Unfuzzy most
translations.
* NEWS: Document this.
