Subject: [PATCH 5/6] prctl.2: srcfix

since only two font styles are required in alternation.

 .BR PR_SET_PDEATHSIG " (since Linux 2.1.57)"
 Set the parent-death signal
 of the calling process to \fIarg2\fP (either a signal value
-in the range 1..\c
-.BR NSIG "\-1" ,
+in the range
+.RB 1.. NSIG \-1,

 This is the signal that the calling process will get when its
