groff option `-p' doesn't take a parameter; it just tells groff to
also use the `pic' preprocessor while processing the data.
There's another solution described in groff_font(5): Modify the file
/usr/share/groff/1.20.1/font/devps/DESC
(or the one in /usr/local/... or whereever) and set up a useful value
for the `papersize' parameter. A good value is
papersize /etc/papersize letter
If the file `/etc/papersize' contains the system wide paper size in
its first line, it is used. If the file is missing, the next argument
`letter' is taken as a fallback.
