I can't be sure where they're coming from exactly, but every once in a while I see messages on debian-user, bug-bash or help-bash which have extra asterisk characters scattered throughout them (usually make the code samples break). The only sensible interpretation I can come up with for why these asterisks were added is that they're being placed around text that's supposed to be emphasized/italicized. When reading the message with the idea that "this might be markdown text" in mind, it's possible to guess, in most cases, which asterisks should be removed to render the code samples or terminal session pastes correct.
