I still like the idea of implementing a check for unknown
commands in Groff instead. A warning from Groff may be used to
trigger a lintian warning, like how it's already done (check
lintian/checks/manpages, Tag: manpage-has-errors-from-man.)
I haven't written anything in Perl for the three years or so,
but of course could give it a try.
