[bug #56499] adjacent trap behavior undocumented and probably undesirable

[G. Branden Robinson]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #56499 (group groff):

In bug #24050, Dave observed, "Bug #56499 also exists across at least three
troffs (DWB troff is not surveyed over there, but Plan 9 troff is)."

I therefore modified the document to use only AT&T _troff_ syntax, and
reproduced the problem with DWB 3.3.
