As Greg Colvin mentioned, this tag is from HTML 4.  I think I used it once
(haven't looked at that part of the code in a few weeks).  It was for a
quotation from some other piece of work.  (I think it was about some famous
guy complaining how empty base class optimization decisions can't be
changed.)  Other quotations weren't from other works and weren't tagged.
