It sortof got lost; actually, it's still sitting in my e-mail queue...

I no longer have the energy (and the interest) to fully concentrate on
groff, mainly because other issues require my time.  As mentioned in
the old mail, however, some debugging would be necessary to find out
why the workaround is necessary at all.

Sorry for the bad news.  I wished there would be someone who wants to
actively contribute to the groff programs (and not only to the various
macro packages).
