* Run the "set-man-page-time-stamps" Makefile target from your build
directory to fix up the stamps on the man pages.
* Build (and test!) a distribution archive with "make distcheck". It's
important to do this especially after tagging a first release
candidate, because this increments the version number visible in
installed file names (such as "/usr/share/groff/1.24.0") and in the
archive file, so that it unpacks to an appropriately named source
directory.
* groff 1.24.0: Edit the groff home page. Revise the sentence "Most
commands installed by groff recognize this option." to say "All".
