After some helpful email from the net, and some experimentation, I cobbled
up the following macro.  It is used *in place of* the .NH macro and the
following title in your text.  I.e., instead of

	.NH 2
	Second Level Heading Title

you type

	.HN 2 "Second Level Heading Title"

Use .TC at the end of your paper.  Here is the macro.  Share and enjoy:

	."
	." HN - Headings that are numbered and produce a Table of Contents entry
	."
	." Usage:   .NH level "text"
	."
	.de HN
	.NH \\$1
	\\$2
	.XS \\n(PN
	\\*(SN \\$2
	.XE
	..
