I think have found a problem with the 'me' macro '(z'.  The 
following text does not seems to work properly:

.(z
.sp 5
Figure 1.1 This is the first figure.  This line is too long and should wrap.
.sp 5
.(x t
Figure 1.1 This is the first figure.  This line is too long and should wrap.
.)x
.)z

.xp t

The above line produces:

Figure 1.1 This is the first figure.  This line is too long and should wrap.
    ..................................................      1


If the index is moved outside the floating keep,  the index entry is filled
and justified properly:

Figure 1.1 This is the first figure.  This line is too
    long and should wrap.  ...........................      1


Does anyone know why this happens or how to fix the problem?  I have
tried using '.(z F', '.(z L F'  and '.fi'.

Any help would be nice.  Thanks.
