[bug #52457] src: the first letter hyphenated in an English word

[Bjarni Ingi Gislason]

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #52457 (project groff):

  Yes, I forgot again to provide evidence.
The malformed hyphenations are in the file
"contrib/mom/examples/typesetting.ps".

  The bug is thus in the file "tmac/troffrc".

Subject: [PATCH] Use the correct value for the .hy request for each language

  The default value for the .hy request is 1.

  When a hyphenation language is selected, the same hyphenation restrictions
must be chosen that were used, when the hyphenation patterns were created.

  Additionally the number '2' (no last-line hyphenation on a page).

  For the future it is best to include the correct number in each
hyphenation file.

  The documentations (info, man) about the default '.hy' value and the
default hyphenation language (.hla) need to be updated.
