Solaris 9 'less' mishandles groff 1.19 SGR commands

GROFF VERSION:
1.19

MACHINE:
SunUltra 1/170E

OS:
Solaris 9

COMPILER:
GCC 3.3

INPUT FILES:
none

COMMAND LINE:
groff -Tascii -man /usr/share/man/man1/bash.1 | /usr/bin/less -R

DESCRIPTION OF INCORRECT BEHAVIOUR:
The output doesn't look good, because "less" doesn't seem to
act on escape sequences like "ESC [ 2 4 m".  It does act on
"ESC [ 0 m", though.  I don't know why.

/usr/bin/less -V reports "less 358".  I built and used less 381, but
had the same problem with it.

SUGGESTED FIX [optional]:
