>Description:
fmt(1) provided with 4.4 does not recongize nroff directives
and treats lines containing them as regular text. Previous
versions previously recongized nroff directives and only
formatted text outside of these directives.
>How-To-Repeat:
fmt <<EOF
.ti 0
fmt should produce two lines, not one.
EOF
>Fix:
Workaround is to use fmt(1) as provided with 4.3.
