    groff - horrible hack to fix .gz issues
    
    * If a gzipped manual page contains a .so forwarding entry, groff
      will attempt to open the forwarding entry directly and will not
      check to see if a file with a .gz extension is present, resulting
      in an open error.
    
    * Hack hack hack.  Horrible hack of the input search path to check
      for a .gz extension and popen() the file with zcat.  Horrible because
      I haven't bothered to modify all the other myrid code to properly call
      pclose() instead of fclose() in that case.
