I think it's up one level to the creator of the man files:

.SH "DESCRIPTION" This script is used to combine all objects that do not currently reside in a "pack", into a pack..sp A pack is a collection of objects, individually compressed, with delta compression applied, stored in a single file, with an associated index file..sp Packs are used to reduce the load on mirror systems, backup engines, disk storage, etc..sp

Results in:
DESCRIPTION
       This script is used to combine all objects that do not currently reside
       in a "pack", into a pack..sp A pack is a collection of objects,
       individually compressed, with delta compression applied, stored in a
       single file, with an associated index file..sp Packs are used to reduce

It's only the .sp function.
So it's likely my version of asciidoc or xmlto.
