With the following reStructuredText file:

    :::restructuredtext
    -f, --foo
       FOO
    
    -b n, --bar n
       BAR

`rst2man` produces the following output:

    .B \-f\fP,\fB  \-\-foo
    .BI \-b \ n\fP,\fB \ \-\-bar \ n

I suppose `\fP` was intended to reset to the normal font; but in the `.BI` line it actually switches to the bold font.
