   - GNU eqn converts some operators to special characters, for example,
     input HYPHEN-MINUS becomes output \(mi, unless it is part of a
     quoted word.  mandoc(1) only does this when the operator is
     surrounded by blanks, not when it is part of an unquoted word.
     Also, check whether there are more such cases (e.g., +?).
