Nothing happened after adding a note to the old bug so I've opened a new
one.

    http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=65920

Don't know if anything will happen though, there's a few groff Red Hat
bugs open.

     9312    MM macro support for font family 
    19555    man doesn't resolve includes of other man files properly 
    27909    The *same binary* that works in RH6.2 crashes in RH7.0 
    40576    groff .rd macro is broken
    43366    groff is confused by '-' at end of arg list if given filena 
    50964    Can't open a groff file with gxditview 
    53743    groff is hardwired to US Letter paper format, not A4 
    56990    With ja_JP.eucJP locale, man shows pages without hyphen. 
    57312    groff can't output Japanese html 
    57410    groff behavier is odd for Japanese man 
    57560    Japanese man ed is crazy 
    65920    Red Hat's README.A4 is Plain Wrong.

Cheers,


Ralph.
