gbranden pushed a commit to branch master
in repository groff.

commit 2c63c2b3cc488ea129302dc46c65374ad334af7a
Author: G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robin...@gmail.com>
AuthorDate: Sun Oct 31 20:03:53 2021 +1100

    [mdoc]: Use more reasonable fallback title length.
    
    * tmac/mdoc/doc-nroff (doc-setup-page-layout): Set the title length to
      the configured line length (register `.l`) if register `LT` is not
      defined.  This keeps the title length from being set to 78n when the
      line length is not, preventing the output from looking silly.
