Looking briefly at swscanf.c, can the o+ and o- not be changed to O+ and
O- respectively as is done further on in the RETURNS section?  I imagine
you didn't see an error there or would have changed them as well.

Unfortunately it changes nothing in regard to my problem - whether all "o+/-" or only some of them (I tried changing only "outer" pair or only "inner" pairs) are capital "O+/-" the error remains:

./stdio/sscanf.def:275: You can't use `@unskip' in vertical mode.
@*->@unskip
            @hfil @break @hbox {}@ignorespaces
l.275 @*

The problematic .def file:

where objects inclosed in square brackets are optional, and @code{ddd}
represents decimal, octal, or hexadecimal digits.
@end table


@*
@strong{Returns}@*
@code{scanf} returns the number of input fields successfully

Line 275 is the one right before {Returns} - with only "@*".

Changing "o+/-" to "O+/-" changes table to itemize, but nothing more...

The "solution" I've found - to put "." in between them (or actually any character, but dot is converted to "smallexample", thus not visible) changes NOTHING in the whole file - just adds something between "@end whatever" and the following commands. Here I've placed an 'a' right after "o-" and compared to "normal" output:

I know that the reason for error seems stupid - that there must be "something" after "@end table" or "@end itemize", before "@*", but I'm pretty certain that's the real reason - for example if I take sprintf.c - that does NOT cause any problems - and remove all text after last "O-" that is before RETURNS the exact same problem happens again...

4\/3!!
