Hi Kristaps,

I fear something is seriously broken with those two files mandoc.1.ps
and mdoc.7.ps.  When i fire up gv on a standard OpenBSD install,
it does not display any text.

Running them through ps2pdf, i do see the text in xpdf, but that's
exactly the kind of jumping through hoops i don't want to see.
Please don't tell me i need to install or configure anything.
If it doesn't work out of the box *everywhere*, i consider it
broken.  If you think you must make anything configurable about
fonts, make sure the burden of configuration is put on those people
who care, not on those who don't.

Yours,
  Ingo
