This is now fixed in the repo and the latest tarball on the mom
homepage.

FWIW, get into the habit of passing the BOXED and CENTER args to
.TS when your tables are boxed and centered with tbl(1) flags.
It isn't necessary all the time, but it takes care of some
spacing/indenting/quadding issues that crop up with TS, and it does
no harm to include them.

Equally, I usually suggest users pass the 'H' arg to TS, à la ms(1).

Thanks for catching this bug.  In fixing it, I found another. :)
