>Description:
In a manual file ftpusers.5, there is a statement which can't be displayed properly with the groff application currently installed in FreeBSD 4-STABLE, groff 1.17.2:
(In line 160-166)
.Pp
The syntax is similar to
.Nm "" ,
except that the  
.Sy class
argument is ignored.

When you process these lines with the groff 1.17.2, you will find the .Nm macro line processed wrong. The output is:
"The syntax is similar to , except that the class argument is ignored. "
It is similar to what?
