Copy the newest version of file `texinfo.tex` (for example, taken from
the `texinfo` git repository) to the same directory as `groff.texi`,
do a `make clean` and repeat the build of the PDF file.  Maybe this
fixes it – if yes, you have an outdated or buggy `texinfo.tex`
somewhere in your TeX input file path.
