We have a problem with ditroff. The following piece of eqn code
causes ditroff to "word overflow". We are running the regular
ditroff (the one from 1978 I think..), and have made no mods
to it. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Perhaps you should
try this fragment with your Troff and see what results you get.
I would be especially interested in what "Documenter's workbench"
eqn/ditroff does with this. If you know of any fixes, or if
you have any suggestions, please, please throw them in this direction.
