The %M% module keyword worked exactly as advertised.  When get.1
was extracted from s.get.1, the %M% keyword (a relatively late
addition, i think, to the document) was not protected and thus
expanded to the module name "get.1".

Try %\&M\&%, or %\&M% (or %M\&%).

Note that there is a similar problem when archiving C programs
that use multiple printf long-int formats together, as: "%D%O%X%s".
The solution here is to use the l-formats: "%ld%lo%lx%s".
