Since there is clearly nothing wrong syntactically with Miklos's
original input (apart from the possibility that there may be
"invisible" bytes lurking in it -- but that would normally
trigger a different error message), it seems that there is indeed
something wrong with his installation of eqn.

I don't use a Mac myself, but a friend up the road does.

I will ask him if I can try that example on his Mac, and report
back on what happens (including platform, groff version, etc.)
That won't be for a few hours yet, though.

Ted.
