This is no longer true (with the grn files I've committed to the groff
CVS repository -- please get the latest snapshot and look at the
files!  I've changed *a lot* to be in sync with other preprocessors)
since I'm using libgroff's font::load_desc() function to automatically
extract the resolution from the DESC file.

The reason must be something different.

It *does* have.  During the process of converting devlj4's `DESC.in'
to DESC while installing groff it gets a proper `res' value.
