In _groff_ development, I suppose, 9 months is speedy.
(The truth is, I'd forgotten I filed this.)

[troff]: Alter color, cp, linetabs, vpt requests.
[troff]: The `color`, `cp`, `linetabs`, and `vpt` requests now interpret
arguments with negative values as instructions to disable the
corresponding feature, using the *roff integer-to-Boolean conversion
idiom instead of the C/C++ one. Thus, if you invoke these requests with
a register interpolation, the outcome agrees with an `if` test of the
register's value.
* src/roff/troff/div.cpp (vertical_position_traps):
* src/roff/troff/env.cpp (widow_control_request) [WIDOW_CONTROL]
(line_tabs_request):
* src/roff/troff/input.cpp (activate_color, compatible): Do it.
* doc/groff.texi.in (Tabs and Fields, Colors, Vertical Position Traps)
(Compatibility Mode):
* man/groff.7.man (Syntax reference conventions)
(Request short reference):
* man/groff_diff.7.man (New requests): Document it.
