Thanks to Mr. Colin's excellent work, groff and groff-base are now present
in the archive, built from the new canonical sources. This should make some
number of other packages buildable now... groff-x11 will follow once the
X11 stuff is actually done (since that requires figuring out why it wants
kernel-headers-2.4 and what to do about that, it may be a while).
