Yes, indeed!

---
The above bug is actually not a problem in
    src/library/base/man/nlm.Rd
but in the code in	  
    etc/Rdconvlib.pl

The construct
      \describe{
	\item{1:}{bla bla}
	\item{2:}{blech blech}
      }

is well translated to  both  LaTeX  and HTML, 
but not to NROFF (basis for ASCII). 
 
===>  Any help from  "Roff" knowledgables ????
