Follow-up Comment #8:

For _groff_ 1.25, let's add "delim" to the set of warning categories that are
enabled by default.

_troff_(1):

Warnings
...
     delim           8   The selected delimiter character was ambiguous
                         because it is also meaningful when beginning a
                         numeric expression, or the closing delimiter in
                         an escape sequence was missing or mismatched.

                         A future groff release may reject ambiguous
                         delimiters.  In compatibility mode, ambiguous
                         delimiters are accepted without warning.
