Okay, so I tried with Debian stable, and groff built from source doesn't 
have a bug there.

To reproduce the bug you need:

- Debian Sid
- Any pager that does highlighting will do (tried less and batcat).
- Any terminal emulator will do (tried xfce and xterm).
- groff built from git HEAD

Cheers,

Alex
