>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.
