As was mentioned in my original message to the list, I did use that
option to successfully configure groff which lead to a successful
build and install.
I'll note that the urw-base35 fonts are *not* part of the Fedora
ghostscript package. It depends on the libgs package, which depends
on the urw-base35-fonts package, which depends on 11 other packages
that contain the various urw-base35 fonts. There are a few other
other urw-base35-* packages, including one that provides legacy X11
fonts.
I'll also note that the Fedora packages for groff provide version
1.23, but I always install my own copies of of groff, and usually have
several different versions installed at the same time.
