It would definitely seem to be a bug associated with the MSYS 
implementation
of RXVT -- I don't see this problem if I run my MSYS shell in a native 
Windoze
console, or even if I just run the MinGW built groff under cmd.exe.  It 
also
works correctly, if I run the MinGW built groff in a Cygwin RXVT.

RXVT looks much prettier, and output to screen is *much* slower in the 
native
Windoze consoles; shame MSYS RXVT doesn't work more reliably :-(

I think I need to report this on the MSYS list.

Best regards,
Keith.
