N.B.  What does the unit 'T' (in GT/s) stand for?  (T is a symbol for the
unit 'tesla'.)

   * What led up to the situation?

     Checking for defects with

test-[g|n]roff -mandoc -t -K utf8 -rF0 -rHY=0 -ww -b -z < "man page"

  [Use "groff -e ' $' <file>" to find trailing spaces.]

  ["test-groff" is a script in the repository for "groff"; is not shipped]
(local copy and "troff" slightly changed by me).

  [The fate of "test-nroff" was decided in groff bug #55941.]

   * What was the outcome of this action?


troff: backtrace: '/home/bg/git/groff/build/s-tmac/an.tmac':560: macro 'I'
troff: backtrace: file '<stdin>':40
troff:<stdin>:40: warning: trailing space in the line
troff: backtrace: file '<stdin>':102

troff:<stdin>:142: warning: tab character in unquoted macro argument
an-end-check:<stdin>: Warning: Different number of .RS and .RE calls, an-RS-open=1 at end of file

Output from "test-nroff  -mandoc -t -K utf8 -rF0 -rHY=0 -ww -b -z ":

troff: backtrace: '/home/bg/git/groff/build/s-tmac/an.tmac':560: macro 'I'

troff:<stdin>:142: warning: tab character in unquoted macro argument
an-end-check:<stdin>: Warning: Different number of .RS and .RE calls, an-RS-open=1 at end of file


   * What outcome did you expect instead?

     No output (no warnings).

Thanks for your fixes. I've applied them upstream and added a few
fixes of my own.
