    Another, perhaps less intrusive/time consuming alternative is to
    change the TROFF and NROFF lines in /etc/man.conf with:
    
    TROFF           /usr/bin/groff -S -Tps -mandoc
    NROFF           /usr/bin/groff -S -Tascii -mandoc
    
    (that is, add the -S switch)
    
           -S     Safer mode.  Pass the -S option to pic and use  the
                  -msafer macros with troff.
    
    see also "man 7 msafer"
