It's not working for me.  I have GNU groff version 1.23.0.rc1.2366-0328.

See:

[[
foo(1)               General Commands Manual              foo(1)

       Here is an example.

              $ printf "\n\nfoo\n\n\n\n\nbar\n"

              foo

              bar

       That was an example.

groff test suite           2022‐05‐09                     foo(1)
]]
