With

groff -mm -Tascii foo > foo.txt

I get correct output running in a DOS box under Windows. However,

groff -mm -Tps foo > foo.ps

Causes an error such as

>> c:/usr/local/bin/grops.exe:<standard input>:191:fatal error: fseek on 
>> temporary file failed

The error does not occur if I exit Windows and run in pure DOS.
Oooops, "pure DOS" may be an oxymoron.
