Apologies for my long silence; due to personal problems I wasn't able to
work on groff these last months.

Version 1.22.4.rc2 no longer build on my environment (Archlinux) because
of glibc 2.28 (fixed by 1c8c0210bded9e78c2748753c17fc9d9b07b0089) so
I've just made a 1.22.4.rc3 version.  I need to check the issue on
'contrib/hdtbl' pointed out by Branden before pushing an official
release.

1.22.4.rc3 can be downloaded here:  https://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/groff/.
To build it and install it:

  mkdir build
  cd build
  ../configure
  make -j <number of core>
  sudo make install

To uninstall it just do 'make uninstall'.  You can also download and
build the 1.22.4.rc3 from git:

  git clone https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/groff.git
  cd groff
  git checkout 1.22.4.rc3
  ./bootstrap
  mkdir build
  cd build
  ../configure
  make -j
  sudo make install
