I noticed this as well, but thought I must have screwed up when I pulled
the files off ftp-os2.nmsu.edu.  I did the same thing you did, and simply
restored the 2.1 versions, which are complete.  I think this is what
caused another poster to complain of an "abnormal program termination"
message.  After the substitution, the sample programs compiled without
a hitch.

You're further ahead here than I am -- I can't get groff working at all,
possibly because I'm having problems with less. Although the archive
integrity seems OK, when invoked, less hangs the machine (this is less177.)
