You are right, James.
USE_GROFF isn't needed isn't needed in this case.

That is correct, too.

However, the whole effect in this particular case is that
one URL per manual page appears flush-left instead of centered,
which odesn't make the manual neither less useful nor ugly.

This report triggered me to

 1) publish the script i'm using to do groff-mandoc comparisons:
    http://mdocml.bsd.lv/cgi-bin/cvsweb/gmdiff?cvsroot=mdocml
    See below for example output.

 2) Update the "mandoc" special topic in the OpenBSD ports FAQ:
    http://www.openbsd.org/faq/ports/specialtopics.html#Mandoc

Thanks for working on OpenBSD ports,
  Ingo
