Problem with man page generation

In the nroff source for nmap(1), which looks as though it's been
automatically generated from some other format (so hopefully the fix
is easy!), comments are often not at the start of a line as they ought
to be, e.g.:

\(lqinteresting ports table\(rq\&..\" ports: \(lqinteresting\(rq

The result is that a double period ".." appears in the man page,
rather than a single period at the end of the sentence. The fix is to
insert a line break before the comment .\".
