Does the attached achieve the desired effect?  Agreed, it isn't 
intuitive: it's very picky about the placement of the reassignment of 
register 'P', and you have to set it to less than zero for it, and the 
effect of the assignment to the 'N' register, to be honoured, but this 
is achieved using only publicly documented features, (discovered by a 
search for 'page number' within groff_mm(7)).
