I have "PRINTERDEVICE=  ascii" in /etc/make.conf, which has worked for
quite some time.

Buildworld fails when creating the system documentation; one of the many
places it fails is:

===> share/doc/usd/11.vitut
touch _stamp.extraobjs
(cd /usr/src/share/doc/usd/11.vitut/../../../../contrib/nvi/docs/USD.doc/edit;
groff -mtty-char -Tascii -t -ms -o1- /usr/src/share/doc/usd/11.vitut/../../../
../contrib/nvi/docs/USD.doc/edit/edittut.ms) |  gzip -cn > paper.ascii.gz
groff: can't find `DESC' file
groff:fatal error: invalid device `ascii'

Looking back through the log, I don't see any previous errors.

I've tried this build with 3.0-STABLE two times last night and today. 
Supping a third time one minute ago, there were no changes related to
groff.

Be happy...
