i am looking at the same problem compiling groff and found his report to

I assume their reply means Werner Lemberg's message here:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-groff/2014-10/msg8.html
i'm not seeing a solution
It's a problem related to the groff source code, and it's not
something Autoconf can fix.
:-)
The attached patch might fix it. I haven't tested this patch, as I
stopped using csh over 35 years ago and never want to go back. I
think groff would be better off if it didn't worry about csh
When used in the context of groff-1.22, the script does the following:
if echo ./conftest.sh | (csh /dev/null 21) /dev/null 21;
On my PC, the script hangs at that line (csh doesn't exit). Admittedly, its my
fault: I've modified my .cshrc to do this:
if ( $?prompt ) exec /bin/bash -i

That's not from autoconf; it's something groff itself does, so please report the
bug to bug-gr...@gnu.org instead.
