The <literal> markup is not visible as distinct on man pages, which
creates a bit of confusion when looking at the documentation of the
pg_basebackup -l option. Rather than reinventing the entire font
system for man pages to remedy this, just put some quotes around this
particular case, which should also help in other output formats.
<listitem>
<para>
Sets the label for the backup. If none is specified, a default value of
- <literal>pg_basebackup base backup</literal> will be used.
+ <quote><literal>pg_basebackup base backup</literal></quote> will be used.
