reported by brad@ Sat, 15 Jan 2011 15:50:51 -0500

.It Em Authentication<tab>Key Length

ought to render "Key Length" with emphasis, too,

see OpenBSD iked.conf(5).

- empty phrases in .Bl column produce too few blanks

try e.g. .Bl -column It Ta Ta

Line 236

Line 233

- .Pp between two .It in .Bl -column should produce one,

not two blank lines, see e.g. login.conf(5).

- If the *first* line after .It is .Pp, break the line right after

the tag, do not pad with space characters before breaking.

Line 256

.Bl -tag -width ".Dv message"

in magic(5), located in src/usr.bin/file, is the same

as -width 7n, not -width 11n.

The same applies to .Bl -column column widths;

reported again by Nicolas Joly Thu, 1 Mar 2012 13:41:26 +0100 via wiz@ 5 Mar

- The \& zero-width character counts as output.

That is, when it is alone on a line between two .Pp,

- We use the input line number at several places to distinguish

same-line from different-line input. That plainly doesn't work

- Find better ways to prevent endless loops

in roff(7) macro and string expansion.
