well done with adding the DEVCOL tags. I've just started to track down
this problem but interestingly it is (pseudo solved) when some text is
placed immediately after the `.P' and before the `.CT' which leads me
to suspect a bug.. anyway once some extra text is placed here it looks
nice :-)

ie:

.P
fixes
.CT "\fIOutput" "\fIInput" "\fIInput" "bracketright" "decomposed"
