I think there may be a race condition caused by the groff pipeline. Just to
be sure, please try
echo foo | troff >&-
My earlier command was causing troff to dump core when its stdout was
closed (by grops exiting) before it finished writing.

Using groff 1.22.4, groff complains and then dumps core when I do this:
$ echo foo | groff -Pbar
troff: fatal error: error writing output file
groff: troff: Signal 11 (core dumped)
Is it just me or does that happen for everyone?
