Summary: no ligatures on apple laser writer.

It turns out that the courier font on the apple laser writer
(which is what sun sells you under their brand name) does not
have ligatures.  So things like "fi" will come out wrong
unless you make sure to tell troff not to use ligatures in 
courier.  I think the relevent configuration files are in 
/usr/lib/fonts.
