I think I fixed this. AFAICS, woman-if-body, which was unchanged since
woman.el was introduced, contained code that made no sense. A minimal
example of a file showing the problem is anything with more than one .ie
block, eg:
.ie n .ds Ab x
.el .ds Ab y
.ie \n(.g .ds Aq \(aq
.el .ds Aq '
.TH Moose
.nh
.SH "NAME"
for example
.PP
\& has \*(Aqssn\*(Aq
I sort of wonder what the point of woman.el is. It has a punny name, but
is basically a partial, buggy, reimplementation of a very standard
external program that is surely installed on any system where man pages
are used. Eg I note that it doesn't render man.1 correctly on my current
system, with the current trunk doing a worse job than Emacs 23.3 does.
