adjtimex.2, futex.2, mremap.2, seccomp.2, getnameinfo.3, random.3, console_codes.4, sysfs.5, sched.7, unicode.7: Use zero‐width space in appropriate locations 

Quoting Branden:

    *roff systems will interpret the period in the unpatched
    page as sentence-ending punctuation and put inter-sentence
    spacing after it.  (This might not be visible on
    nroff/terminal devices, but it is more likely to be on
    typesetter/PostScript/PDF output).

    groff_man(7) in groff 1.22.4 attempts to throw man page
    writers a bone here:

     \&     Zero‐width space.  Append to an input line to prevent
            an end‐of‐ sentence punctuation sequence from being
            recognized as such, or insert at the beginning of an
            input line to prevent a dot or apostrophe from being
            interpreted as the beginning of a roff request.
