In your update to eqn.man, I see:

+.SH "INTERACTION WITH @address@hidden"
+It is not possible to use the hash character (#) as a delimiter ...

Surely, that should read "INTERACTION WITH @address@hidden"?

I would also s/possible/advisable/; it is certainly *possible* to use 
# as an eqn delimiter, although it may not be advisable.

Also in tbl.man:

+.LP
+It is not possible to use the hash character (#) as a delimiter ...

I would again s/possible/advisable/
