[Groff] EBCDIC hyphenation in troff on tty

Lost in source! After converting the font files and making some minor
source changes, troff formats man pages quite right under our EBCDIC
system. The only problem is that the '[' (left bracket, ascii 0132 x5B,
ebcdic 0255 xAD) is used as a hyphenation character at the end of lines,
instead the correct '-' (minus, ascii 0055 x2d, ebcdic 0140 x60).

I could not find out why. Can somebody show me the right piece of code,
please?
