The file README.CVS in groff's top source directory contains information about tools that are needed to build groff from its source. This information is not only necessary for the CVS version, but for all versions of the groff source. So this information belongs to the file README instead.
The existence of the file README.CVS forces that all CVS information in README should go to README.CVS. This email contains two patch files with the corresponding changements for README and README.CVS as attachment.
