in repository groff.

commit 6d15da10a4fa3cb168249a7c9cc77d9881ae6431
Author: G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>

    [mm]: Slightly revise index output.
    
    * contrib/mm/m.tmac (INDP): Call `SK` if `TXIND` is not defined, instead
      of as the first thing if `TYIND` is not defined.  This is easier to
      rationalize in the documentation as something that happens before the
      index caption is written.  This way any page breaking or spacing prior
      to the index is strictly `TXIND`'s responsibility, and the formatting
      of the index caption itself, followed by any formatting changes
      appropriate to the index entries, belongs to `TYIND`.
    
    * NEWS: Add item.

+o The m (mm) macro package's `IND` macro (a GNU extension), now calls
+  `SK` only if no `TXIND` macro is defined, instead of performing this
+  action as part of the fallback when no `TYIND` macro is defined.
+
 o The s (ms) macro package now sets the vertical spacing register
   defaults for normal (`VS`) and footnote (`FVS`) text to 120% of the
   existing type size rather than 2 points larger to comport with
