FWIW I suspect those are both "literal" environments, thus governed by the rule described in v1.6.0-rc0~152 (git-format-patch(1): fix stray \ in output, 2008-07-02).

Based on "git grep -e '~[^~].*~' -- Documentation/", I think you found them all, unless there are some examples span multiple lines.
