Hello,
this is to note that plan9's troff ms macro set seems to be broken in
how the .RS and .RE macros are implemented.
You may try

... c is misplaced
However one can appeal to p9p's implementation, where this has been corrected.

PS.: It's a pity that this mistake must have been once hunted down
(probably on p9p), but wasn't then propagated back.
