/usr/athena/bin/psroff isn't working on NetBSD. The psroff
script gives troff the -Tpsc option to use the PostScript device
files, which works with the Athena troff install, but the groff
install on NetBSD-Athena wants -Tps instead.
Grossly, the psroff script won't allow other -T options to be
specified; this makes a little bit of sense, since it's supposed to be
generating PostScript.
This could be fixed by changing the psroff script for NetBSD,
or by creating /usr/share/groff_font/devpsc as a link to
/usr/share/groff_font/devps.
