[Groff] tbl: Standard column width? |

Hello,
I would like to know, if there is a standard column width, when I use
the .TS macro? The problem is, that the result of the following code is
wrapped text in the second column (independent from MANWIDTH), even if I
use expand:
.TS
expand allbox;
ll.
T{
"0x10000000"
T} T{
Disable AGP 4x (forces 8x).
T}
T{
"0x20000000"
T} T{
Disable AGP 8x (forces 4x).
T}
.TE
The second column is always wrapped after 22/23 chars [1]. Is this
intended behaviour? I mean, there is so much space left so the column
content could show this in one line and only wrap, if MANWIDTH is
reached. Is it a groff or a man issues?
[1] I know I could change the minimum column width with the 'w'
specifier. But if I e.g. set this to 80, the column content does not
wrap even if it reaches the MANWIDTH value.
