Hmm, I'm not so sure about that.  The bug appears on my printout as well
and we use ditroff + Xerox' Interpress Toolkit to produce output on their
laser printers.  I haven't had an opportunity to try your bugfix yet, so
I don't really know if it helps, of course, but I trust you on your words
(and it *looks* right) :-).  First I thought that it might be ditroff vs.
troff problems, but since you use troff I'm not so sure any more.
Anybody else who knows?
