Hi...

	I just installed groff 1.10 on my *-current machine (ya, I like
the new and [seemingly-]better stuff, that why I'm using *-current *grin*)
and it breaks man.

	To fix, I ended up having to go into /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/man
and modifying Makefile.inc so that it sets nroff is set to:

	nroff -Tascii -mandoc

	instead of

	nroff -Tascii -man

	Just as a suggestion for anyone else wanting to install
the new groff, you may hit this problem, and want to modify/recompile
man accordingly.
