     iiff--bbeeffoorree--DDdd - end of if block on its own line before Dd

DDEESSCCRRIIPPTTIIOONN
     In an old version of mandoc(1), mdoc(7) file format autodetection failed
     when the end of an iiff block stood on its own line before the initial
     mdoc(7) DDdd macro.  The file was mishandled as man(7) and parsing failed
     with unknown macro errors.

     If the present document looks like a proper mdoc(7) document and the
     following display reads "mytext", then the problem did not come back:

           mytext
