I changed my mind on this one, and no longer see a need to do it.

The groff build is not complexly parameterized in the presence or
absence of "ps2ps"; we don't AC_SUBST it, for example.  Further, ps2ps
is just one of several host commands that we handle the same way (along
with several from NetPBM/PNMtools); the absence of any of them has the
same result: grohtml can't be used, which we consider an abnormal (not
to say erroneous) configuration.

Those facts distinguish it from gropdf's 3 supported configurations.

Branden
