Note that as made available in the open-sourced DWB 3.3, 'eqnchar' is
a valid troff file. It contains .EQ and .EN and troff comments, much
like groff's own eqnrc.
So technically, it would fail syntacially in an EQN 'include' statement
with an error along the lines of nested .EQ/.EN blocks.
So if we are going to allow an 'eqnchar' that works perfectly well on the
command line or as the object of an include statement, we need to mandate
that the 'include' statement only interpret data between .EQ and .EN tags.
But that means that a file containing only EQN code will fail because it
will never find a .EQ. Scary.
We need to think about this a bit more.
