Hi Branden,

The extension of the page length is workaround for
<https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?63449>, which is a very old groff bug,
possibily dating back to groff 1.00 or beyond.  It is fixed in groff
Git.  But waiting for a groff release is not necessary; man-db man(1)
nowadays conceals diagnostic messages from the formatter and output
drivers.

Patch set applied.  Thanks,

Alex
