The offending lines, in the macro ALL_DONE, are

  .TAB_SET 1 \\n[#DOC_L_LENGTH]u/2u \\n[#DOC_L_LENGTH]u/2u LEFT

      and, 2 lines later

  .TAB 1

Comment them out or remove them, and the closing will be printed flush left.

Sorry, I should have thought of making the CLOSING indent
user-controllable sooner.  I'll fix it in the CVS in the next day or
two.

Hope this helps.
