From: Carlos Henrique Lima Melara <charlesmelara@riseup.net>
Subject: doc/gen-man.sh: use printf instead of echo to make it portable

printf is recommended instead of echo because it has a more predictable
behavior than echo (tip from the POSIX standard ;-). Using it allow us
to generate the _same_ manpage using sh, dash or bash.
