Follow-up Comment #6:

Thanks to the anonymous clarifier for the the clarification.  

Extrapolating from comment #5, input files with CR-LF line endings (on _any_
platform) should be converted to use LF (only) line endings before processing
with any GNU roff programs.

In the forthcoming groff 1.23.0, the groff_man_style(7) man page also says the
following.

>    Man pages should be encoded using Unicode basic Latin code points
>    exclusively, and employ the Unix line‐ending convention (U+000A
>    only).

Resolving as invalid.

Dropping patch annotation from invalid ticket.

Also, as noted in bug #55299, Achim Gratz is maintaining groff for Cygwin now,
not Brian Inglis.  Thanks for the correction.
