Where do you want to add this--in the macro package?  This would not be 
necessary, since it is already groff's own package.  We don't need to care for 
those who steal it ;)

I saw testing for \(.g in manpages--this is a bad idea.  Manpages itself need 
to be written portable, without testing for this or that formatter.
