Hi,

When converting ORG to MAN pages (org-man-export-to-man), a new line
should be added before the line break `.br' tag. Otherwise, for
example, the following:
```
hello\\
word
```
is converted to:
```
hello.br
word
```

Patch attached.

Thanks,
Francesco

Applied. Thank you.

As a side note, it's good to see a patch for "ox-man.el" because
I seriously wondered if it was used at all.

Also, if do know and use it, and you have some spare time to share with
us, we have a dire need for a manual chapter about that export back-end.
Just sayin'.

Sure, I'll try to reserve some time to work on that.

Best,
