hello,

i am not on any groff mailing list and have no
great experience w/it.  most likely what i am going
to report is not a bug, but a feature.  nevertheless
if you could explain it i'd be grateful.

amaaq> uname -a
OpenBSD amaaq 3.1 AMAAQ#4 i386

amaaq> groff -v
GNU troff version 1.15

i am trying to process a man page, see the attachment.

the command
amaaq> nroff -Tascii -mandoc sysconf.3 > sysconf.3

produces a man page where there is a seemingly blank line
between these 2:

     _SC_BC_SCALE_MAX

                  The maximum scale value in the bc(1) utility.

i tried to generate a ps version and i noticed that
the blank line is exactly where a page break is.

is this a bug or a feature?

reality is that part of imagination we all agree on.
