I have installed 1.19.2 (via todays cvs checkout) onto an OpenBSD

upgrade of texinfo to 4.8, (both of which I installed from source).
I get the following result when accessing the man page for groff
(though
texinfo's came out fine):

I'm sure there's something silly I've overlooked. Perhaps someone
could
point it out to me?
Read man grotty (if you can see it through the escape sequences!).
Groff now uses SGR (ANSI-escape) sequences for bold, underline, color
etc. You can temporarily disable it by setting the environment
variable GROFF_NO_SGR - this will revert grotty to the old behavior of
backspacing and overprinting. Essentially, to get it all to work
smoothly on your system *with* SGR sequences, you need to adjust the
behavior of your pager - as described in the manpage.
