Follow-up Comment #12, bug #50786 (project groff):

Werner:

Wow, I've been annoyed with RMS for many years, wrongly it seems!

So _many_ GNU tools use these hideous unbalanced glyphs, abusing the grave
accents as an ersatz quotation mark, that I thought it was part of the GNU
Coding Standards to do so.

Thanks for the pointer to this resource.  Eventually we may get the lances out
of people's eyes.
