I don't understand how that is possible, because eqn doesn't really distinguish between inline equations and displayed equations -- it's your macro package which handles displaying of equations, the code generated by eqn is practically identical. By default, eqn uses fonts "I" and "R", so since family "GO" was being used, switching to font "I" should have made gtroff use font "GOI", unless perhaps your macros EQ/EN explicitly set up a different font as "I" and "R". Could you check that?
