When groff is built on a system with /usr merged, the paths to bash and grep get embedded in various files (/usr/bin/gdiffmk and some example documentation), resulting in an unreproducible build. The attached patch passes BASH_PROG=/bin/bash and GREP=/bin/grep, which is compatible with both a usrmerge and non-usrmerge system. live well, vagrant
