Sorry, it's even worse than that.  -mos is still Berkeley's 4.x-ish ms
macros.  We needed to go onto a V7 tape to get the REAL ms macros to
retypeset half of the Bell documentation.  We have it installed on our
systems as -msbell now.  We also ship these macros with our product.

That should be a hint to people that are porting 4.2 to their favorite
machine for resale.  Be sure that the customers receive whatever files
are necessary to reformat the documentation.  For our product, we also
fixed the /usr/doc/run script to make it possible, REALLY, to reformat
the myriad of text from Volume 2.
