Well, in this very case Bernd is right: You *must* write
.TH
.mso hdtbl.tmac
since `-man -mhdtbl' doesn't work, causing a loop. Given that .TH is
used only once at the very beginning of the document, the re-use of
.TH as a hdtbl macro works just fine.
On the other hand, this only gets important if someone is going to add
proper TTY support to hdtbl. IMHO, man pages which don't deliver good
TTY results are useless in most cases.

As does
groff -man -hdtbl
:-)
