Sorry for an unclear bug report. What I described earlier is the case
that exposed the problem in nroff-mode. The problem itself is that
the global search prefix keymap ‘M-s’ (search-map) is shadowed
in nroff-mode by a keybinding that bounds the same key ‘M-s’
in nroff-mode-map to ‘center-line’.
The solution already exists in text-mode from which nroff-mode inherits:
text-mode binds ‘center-line’ to ‘M-o M-s’. Thus just removing the
keybinding ‘M-s’ from nroff-mode will make the search prefix ‘M-s’
of search-map available in nroff-mode, whereas ‘M-o M-s’ will call
‘center-line’ previously bound to ‘M-s’.
