Using the latest git version, I get errors when compiling the ms.ms document:

  ~/ % groff -e -p -t -ms ms.ms >ms.pdf
  troff:ms.ms:3886: error: cannot alias undefined name 'toc*div'
  troff:ms.ms:3917: error: cannot alias undefined name 'SavedTOC'
  troff:ms.ms:4054: error: cannot alias undefined name 'toc*div'
  troff:ms.ms:4074: error: cannot alias undefined name 'SavedTOC'

The ms.pdf files then does not render correctly. I attach it here.
