This happens in a recent groff build a little older than rc2 but with the
latest -me macros. But the behavior is identical with a stock 1.22.4 build.
$ cat test.me
.mso e.tmac
.
.de $H \" user-defined -me header macro
.tm nn is \\n(nn
..
.
.vs 2i
.
.nr nn 4
Hello.
$ groff -ww test.me > /dev/null
nn is 4
$ sed s/vs/in/ test.me | groff -ww > /dev/null
nn is troff:<standard input>:7: warning: register 'nn' not defined
0
Nothing that I can see about setting the indentation level ought to cause -me
to think "starting a new page!"
Ironically, the -me manual specifies .in but _not_ .vs as a safe low-level
request.
