In a recent commit, I noted some weirdness.

[sboxes]: Fix Savannah #68538.
* contrib/sboxes/sboxes.tmac (fn@print-sep): Use `output` request
instead of `nop \!` sequence, which probably _should_ be equivalent,
but for some reason is not.
Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?68538>.
Look into this. Not a _groff_ 1.25.0 blocker.
