Bug#1040975: CW font disabled in groff-base v1.23

[Andrew Ruthven]

Control: reassign -1 groff-base
Control: affects -1 perl

Hey,

I think a change in groff-base to re-enable the CW font alias might be
reasonable. This affects a number of other packages, not just perl (via
pod2man), for example:

puck at dirk:~$ man --warnings /usr/share/man/man1/strace.1.gz > /dev/null
troff:<standard input>:88: warning: macro 'IX' not defined
troff:<standard input>:119: warning: cannot select font 'CW'
troff:<standard input>:124: warning: cannot select font 'CW'
...

(Lintian excludes the IX macro which is why that is present)

Cheers,
Andrew
