 We have such .Lk instances in several man pages, e.g. mq_open(3) or
 iwctl(8).  mandoc(1) formats them as expected, but groff's mdoc adds
 the bogus ".:"
 
 Surprisingly, savecore(8) has an instance of this as well but groff
 formats it correctly, probably doc-width (a global variable) just
 happens to have the right value by luck in that specific point in the
 document (that same .Lk does get formatted incorrectly if put in
 another location).
