.SY macro of the Man package

Hello, all

Here's  another  trouble I have run into. I tried the .SY com-
mand to produce a nice synopsys specification, but  it  didn't
work  right.  Then I tried GROFFing the troff(1) page (which I
believe should be OK) and the .SY  macro  gave  wrong  results
again:

Source:
 .SY troff
 .OP -abcivzCERU
 .OP -d cs
 .OP -f fam
 .OP -F dir
 .OP -I dir
 .OP -m name
 .OP -M dir
 .OP -n num
 .OP -o list
 .OP -r cn
 .OP -T name
 .OP -w name
 .OP -W name
 .RI [ file  ...]
 .YS

Result:
       [file ...]

I'd expect a bit more text:
       troff [ -abcivzCERU ] [ -dcs ] [ -ffam ] [ -Fdir ] [ -Idir ] [
-mname ] [ -Mdir ] [ -nnum ]
             [ -olist ] [ -rcn ] [ -Tname ] [ -wname ] [ -Wname ] [ files... ]

I am using Groff 1.20.1 of GNUWin32
