Details:
When the .char request is used in groff 1.22.4, correct output is produced for
PostScript or TTY:
printf ".char a z\nplan\n" | nroff | grep pl.n
printf ".char a z\nplan\n" | groff | grep pl.n
But incorrect output is produced for ASCII approximation via -a:
printf ".char a z\nplan\n" | groff -a | grep pl.n
