I created a file with the above text and ran it with 
	toez -m -troff test > test.d

The result was a mostly empty file containing none of the words in the
given text.

In other words, it doesn't work with the RT version of -ms either.  

I am sending this note to info-andrew-bugs so the bug can be recorded.
