Follow-up Comment #1:

This should be rejected.  The man(7) language neither defines nor uses the F
register nor the IX macro for anything, so it should not manipulate them. 
Whatever uses them is responsible for using them correctly.  This is none of
groff's business.

Man pages created with "pod2man" use these.
Some other man pages use the macro.
