specifically, rewrite them to permit some markup in the column headers,
and use "Ta" instead of literal tabs; mandoc does not currently match groff
100%, but a mandoc fix may be some time off, and we've gone enough releases
with poorly formatting column lists.
in some cases i have rewritten the lists as -tag, where -column made
little sense.

considered normal word characters even when delimiting column phrases
in .Bl -column. Thus, in any column but the last, if the column is
terminated by a literal tab, and the last character is a solitary dot,
that dot is NOT considered punctuation, and consequently offset from
the preceding text by a blank space. This space does not occur when the
Ta macro is used inmstead of a literal tab, or when a blank character is
inserted between the dot and the tab.
Confused now? So were we.
We decided to consider that a bug in groff, not a feature,
and to not emulate it in mandoc(1).
Thus, let operator(7) no longer depend on that groff bug.
