For all you folks seeing long page numbers using mm with the
4.2 BSD nroff, help is on the way.

The problem is the missing get 'g' type format request in the
nroff distributed with 4.2 BSD which the mm macro use.  
I sent the fix off to Berkeley ages ago and have not heard boo from them.  

I made the fix on our nroff and will be happy to send copies to 
all who request it.  Send me a mail message and I'll send you 
the fix.  It is relatively short.
