Oh, and this triggered a warning.  I've amended it to use B instead of
BI.  See:

$ make lint build check -j24 -k
TROFF	.tmp/man/man4/smartpqi.4.cat.set
an.tmac:man4/smartpqi.4:459: style: .BI expects at least 2 arguments, got 1
make: *** [share/mk/build/catman.mk:54: .tmp/man/man4/smartpqi.4.cat.set] Error 1
make: *** Deleting file '.tmp/man/man4/smartpqi.4.cat.set'
make: Target 'build' not remade because of errors.
make: Target 'check' not remade because of errors.
