I favour this change of wording; it corrects the grammatical sense,
while preserving the originally intended meaning...<snip>
How about:

"Do not automatically postprocess troff output in the usual manner.
This will print..."

Yes, I like that!  Perhaps also with the following sentence amended,
so the whole paragraph becomes:

"Do not automatically postprocess troff output in the usual manner.
This will cause the intermediate output to appear on stdout; see
groff_out(5)."
