Subject: Man writer: Escape - as \-.

Unescaped -'s become hyphens, while \-'s are left as ascii
minus signs.  That is preferable for use with command-line
options.

See  http://lintian.debian.org/tags/hyphen-used-as-minus-sign.html.
Thanks to Andrea Bolognani for bringing the issue to our
attention.
