Follow-up Comment #5, bug #67992 (group groff):

Here's an example of a "regression" under the Schwarze-Kemper (-Hyrum?)
definition.

https://github.com/9fans/plan9port/pull/738

Not the bug--the fix!

A user could have had a (reasonable?!) expectation that they could rely on the
formatter to abort if they attempted a modulus-by-zero operation in a numeric
expression.

Now, wretchedly, Plan 9 from User Space troff merely issues a warning, just as
its feeble relative, division by zero, long has. 

Regression, regression--oh, depression!
