Yup, can reproduce.  Well, I guess I'll find a place to checkpoint my ms documentation work, push that (~30 commits), and work on this.

Thanks, Bjarni.  I owe Ingo a revisit of my recent groff_mandoc(7) tweaks from December anyway.


$ ./build/test-groff -z -Tutf8 -t -man ~/tmp/mandoc-1.14.5.1

  You got the Debian version, which is a translated version from mdoc-
to man-macros.

Hi Bjarni,

I can't reproduce this with Debian's groff 1.22.4 or groff git HEAD.

Here's a demonstration of the latter.

If no one else can come up with a reproducer I'll have to close this; please check your local customizations.


$ zcat $(man -w mandoc) | ./build/test-groff -Tutf8 -P-cbou -man| tail
       The mandoc utility first appeared in OpenBSD 4.8.  The option -I
       appeared in OpenBSD 5.2, and -aCcfhKklMSsw in OpenBSD 5.7.

AUTHORS
       The mandoc utility was written by Kristaps Dzonsons <kristaps@bsd.lv>
       and is maintained by Ingo Schwarze <schwarze@openbsd.org>.
