With mm default setup, get "input stack limit exceeded" upon page
break for range of page lengths:
.pl 10.2i to .pl 10.6i
[.pl 10.5i is for executive paper, which I use].
If format same text without mm macros (straight troff), there is no
problem.
The description of the VM command in the groff_mm man page suggests
you have met this problem already -- shrinking of the page footer
size gives "input stack limit exceeded" behavior for the default page
length, .pl 11.0i.
The attached file shows the above behaviour when run through the
troff formatter.
Thank you,
Best wishes,
