There is no such file in the official groff tree. Is this one of your
customizations? Or are you referring to
[http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/groff.git/tree/man/groff.7.man
man/groff.7.man]?

This does not appear to be true, of current groff or any official groff going
back to at least 1.19.2. Is this one of your customizations?
$ cat pso_test
.ds greeting echo Hello
.pso \*[greeting] world
