Hi,

the configure script of groff fails here in a minimal-generic built of trunk 
complaining that it expects absolute path names for bin-dir, sbin-dir, etc. 
The attached patch fixes this by commenting out the corresponding checks. 
Although I have no idea if that is the correct way to fix this ...

Regards,
Lars
