Ha.  Nope, no way I know of that wouldn't be destructive (like force-pushing).  I guess we're stuck with it.

So for the sake of posterity, it took me only 4 months to fix my problem, not 16.

Dunno if there's a way to edit a git log entry, but the year above has an off-by-one error.

Found it.

Of the dozens of our man pages that use tables, only groff_diff(7) has retained them since groff 1.22.4.

So, a pretty bad regression, and it's probably my fault.

I see a bisection in my future.
