While packaging fribidi, I got a lintian warning about fribidi_remove_bidi_marks.3 manpage, regarding the use of a dash (-) to indicate a hyphen in '-1', so I fixed it using the attached patch.

Well, those are auto-generated by an unmaintained tool called c2man...  So I rather just leave it as is for now.
