[bug #55155] [troff] .tr is applied to the RHS of .char definitions

[G. Branden Robinson]

Update of bug #55155 (project groff):

                Category:         Device - others => Core                   
                  Status:                    None => Confirmed              
                 Summary: .tr is overzealous in nroff output => [troff] .tr is
applied to the RHS of .char definitions

Follow-up Comment #5:

This is a core issue, right down deep in src/roff/troff, and is not, as I
understand it, device-specific in any way.  tty-char.tmac simply makes it
visible.

It might demand a good deal of thought.

I threw '.trin` instead of `.tr` at the problem, not really thinking it would
help (the problem is not the encoding of input characters), and it did not.
