Forgot about this.
I changed the implementation for PAUSE from
    .de PAUSE
    \X'ps: exec %%%%PAUSE'\c
    ..
into
    .de PAUSE2
    \X'ps: exec %%%%PAUSE'\c
    ..
    .de PAUSE
    .fl
    \! x X ps: exec %%%%PAUSE
    ..
And you hav to use PAUSE2 inside .DS/.DE pairs instead of PAUSE.

Why I needed to change to PAUSE macro I can't remember at the moment (changed
it more than 3 yeaars ago).
