>Release:        FreeBSD 3.0-CURRENT i386
>Organization:
Alcatel Australia Limited
>Environment:

CTM 'cvs-cur 4996' [yes I know it's old] running on PII-266

>Description:

When groff is built during make world, the devlj4 and devps printer drivers
both include paper size definitions.  These are determined by the variable
`PAGE' which is hard-coded in .../src/gnu/usr.bin/groff/Makefile.cfg as
'PAGE=letter'.

>How-To-Repeat:

make world

>Fix:
	
I believe the assignment should be `PAGE?=letter', preferably with a
suitable comment documenting the new "make world" option.
