  .El
+ .Pp
+ The design goals of the
+ .Nm mandoc
+ library are limited to providing the functionality required by the
+ .Xr mandoc 1
+ program.
+ Consequently, the functions documented in the present manual page
+ do not aim for API stability.
+ Any third-party program using them typically requires adjustments after every
+ .Nm mandoc
+ release.
+ Linking such a program requires
+ .Fl lz
+ because
+ .Fn mparse_readfd
+ calls
+ .Xr gzdopen 3 ,
+ .Xr gzread 3 ,
+ .Xr gzerror 3 ,
+ and
+ .Xr gzclose 3 .
+ For
+ .Xr mandoc 1
+ itself, the
+ .Pa ./configure
+ script automatically adds
+ .Fl lz
+ to the
+ .Ev LDADD
+ .Xr make 1
+ variable.
