Well, it seems my mistake was running troff the whole time, troff only
runs the typesetting preprocessor without the ps (or other) postprocessor,
which is exactly what groff does, i.e., runs troff (or any other,
such as pic or tbl..) first as the preprocessor, and then any
postprocessor you specify. (default is ps but others such as dvi for TeX
exist as well).
