    doc/groff.texi.in: "Rename" "GNU troff Reference".
    
    Tag the word "troff" with Texinfo's "@command", to semantic markup
    scruples and to ensure it gets set in a consistent face.
    
    Apparently a compatibility anchor isn't required for this alteration
    (and attempting one is, in fact, an error to Texinfo), I suppose since
    it doesn't change the _text_ of the node identifier.  That makes sense
    if we consider that Texinfo's design may arise more from the "Info" part
    than the "TeX" part.  (Info's design in turn owes a considerable debt to
    Brian Reid's Scribe.[1])
