The following lines

    # The following links are required for xman
    dosym eqn /usr/bin/geqn
    dosym tbl /usr/bin/gtbl
    dosym soelim /usr/bin/zsoelim

which are present in all ebuilds for older versions of groff are missing from
the groff-1.19.2.ebuild file.  I don't know about xman, but man needs these
links to be present in order to function and neither do the man, nor xman
ebuilds provide these links.

archimedes ~ # grep -n dosym /usr/portage/sys-apps/man/*               
/usr/portage/sys-apps/man/man-1.5p.ebuild:69:   dosym man /usr/bin/manpath

archimedes ~ # grep -n dosym /usr/portage/x11-apps/xman/*

And just for good measure:

archimedes ~ # grep -n dosym /usr/portage/sys-apps/groff/*

i can see the geqn and gtbl links being required, but sys-apps/man doesnt refer
to zsoelim anywhere that i can see ...

1.19.2-r1 has geqn and gtbl again
