Description:
man pages with groff-1.18 don't fill the width of console.
man pages are approximately 80 columns wide.  man pages with 
groff-1.17.2 fill most of the console width.

echo $LINES $COLUMNS
90 240

Repeat-By:
/configure && make install groff-1.18
man gcc
/configure && make install groff-1.17.2
man gcc

Fix:
cd /usr/{local}/share/groff
cp -p ./1.17.2/tmac/an-old.tmac ./1.18/tmac/an-old.tmac

That's not the best, but it does the trick.
