Please add a ChangeLog entry!  I insist on having entries for
everything which isn't trivial (e.g., fixing typos in comments or
documentation).

Yes.  Please use groff's `-ww' option to catch potential problems.
Ideally, there shouldn't be any warnings.

BTW, according to my experience, a great deal of errors can be caught
if you use

  (a) the colorized man output of the Midnight Commander (this is,
      pressing the F3 key on a man page)
  (b) different terminal line lengths, say, 80 and 100 characters.
