Greetings,
the following patch is required to let man(1) continue to work if the
user build WITHOUT_GROFF and has textproc/groff installed. I personally
think relying on a sane $PATH while calling groff and co is ok to do.
If there are good reasons against this, please speak your mind. The idea
is to be able to switch back and forth between base/ports groff-suite
without having to alter any configuration files.
Cheers,
Uli

Let users' PATH decide which groff suite to pick up.
Let groff pass the -c flag to grotty, which will turn off ANSI
sequences. While these are not a problem for our more/less, they get
mangled by col(1) and this will result in garbage output.
This makes man(1) work together with textproc/groff, in case the
user decided to delete the old groff from base (-DWITHOUT_GROFF).
