cstr54 says under .br in section 4.2:

    Text lines beginning with space characters (but not tabs) and empty
    text lines (blank lines) also cause a break.

Further on, at the end of section 5:

    Blank text line.
        Causes a break and output of a blank line exactly like sp 1.

So if ^$ on input is treated as ^\.sp 1$ then the `a' should be
underlined I guess.  The ^$ is effectively a control line.
