But rather than put lipstick on an orc, I'd rather get us away from the `ad` request entirely, except for backward compatibility, and even then I want to change some corner-case behavior except in AT&T compatibility mode, as you should recall.[2] Here is my proposal: https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?65954 > See more in bug #59795 (has a patch) Resolved as fixed for nearly four years and I see no case here for revisiting that status. > (and #55579). Resolved as a duplicate of #55579. These bugs are exhibits of you desiring a feature change in groff, not of you discovering a defect,[3] let alone one that is unresolved.
