Follow-up Comment #3, bug #59345 (project groff):

The removal of support for the old AT&T ms PN register did not last.


commit 3d7a207e853468c78391ae66f9350a5328deac4b
Author: G. Branden Robinson <[email protected]>

    [ms]: Restore support for AT&T ms PN register.
    
    * tmac/s.tmac (pg): Make register PN an alias of %.
    
    * doc/groff.texi (Differences from AT&T ms):
    * doc/ms.ms (Differences from AT&T ms):
    * tmac/groff_ms.7.man (Differences from troff ms): We don't need PN, and
      it was removed in commit 08291b40 (25 October 2020), but since it is
      documented in Lesk 1978 we're stuck with it.  Advise users to stick
      with %.  Also warn them of the hoop they must jump through if they
      redefine the page trap macro PT, which Lesk 1978 also encourages.
