Urgh. I seem to remember that we restricted this to macros to avoid
rewriting verbatim sections. We had a man page containing
>>>>>
Here is an example of how to use the line
continuation with cpp:
#define my_macro some text being too long to \
be on one line only, but it's \
not a problem since we can use \
line continuation like this
Thanks for your attention.

With you change, there is a risk that this verbatim block gets rewriten even
if it really shouldn't.
That being said, all this is based on remembrance. If it doesn't increase
the number of pages for which we fail, I must be wrong.
Thanks for your time,
Mt.
