Dear Maintainer,
From "groff -b -ww -mandoc -z":
<standard input>:107: warning: macro `IX' not defined
Input file: /usr/share/man/man1/strace.1.gz
Changes:
Macro IX defined as empty for groff
'-' as minus changed to '\-'
Have two word spaces after a full stop as an end of sentence
Better is to begin each sentence at the start of a line
Use extra space ('\,' or '\/') between roman and italic characters
