The following causes a stack underflow error in groff.

It doesn't generate any error messages in regular ATT troff.  We have
not tried it on AT&T ditroff.

START OF EXAMPLE
.(l
list1
list2
.)l
.)l
END OF EXAMPLE

We used the following command to run groff with .me macros

#
unset noclobber
groff -C -e -t -Tps -me $1 >  /tmp/$1.out

The issue came up when we attempted to printout the 
postgres-setup.me
file from .0/database in gatekeeper.dec.com

That file appeared to have a mismatched ".)l"

We are also having trouble printing out the 
sbprolog_doc.me
with groff from Stony Brook Prolog release.

When we print that file out, we get really bad printout--lines are
on top of each other--the text printed out includes lines that are 
obviously intended to be troff macros.  We are going to be looking
more into this problem in the near future.

Has anyone had any luck printing the Stony Brook Prolog with ditroff?


We are using

groff version 1.06

Sun Sparcserver 4/670P

OS 4.1.2

We compiled with Sun C++
