The problem here is that the input text looks like

.SS
I would be [blah]
.QP
More [blah]
.SE

When the SE processing takes place the indent is still incremented by
\n[PD], so the box is shifted right (you can see that the left side
is indented).  I added a .RT just before the .SE and the problem
disappeared.  Should I add a .RT (or .LP 0) to .SE?  I'm a little
afraid that that might mess up someone's hand tuned formatting.  What
does everyone think?
