Follow-up Comment #3, bug #59345 (project groff):
The removal of support for the old AT&T ms PN register did not last.

[ms]: Restore support for AT&T ms PN register.
* tmac/s.tmac (pg): Make register PN an alias of %.
* doc/groff.texi (Differences from AT&T ms):
* doc/ms.ms (Differences from AT&T ms):
* tmac/groff_ms.7.man (Differences from troff ms): We don't need PN, and
it was removed in commit 08291b40 (25 October 2020), but since it is
documented in Lesk 1978 we're stuck with it. Advise users to stick
with %. Also warn them of the hoop they must jump through if they
redefine the page trap macro PT, which Lesk 1978 also encourages.
