I wonder if we should note in the man page that the CTR macro is newer, which could explain why existing cases in the tree are CTRn.

Hmmm, perhaps.

Yeah, I'd like that added to HISTORY.

Manual page syntax looks good, but it'd be nice to have a mention of the timing in the HISTORY section.

Am I reading this right as saying that CTR itself can only handle 5 items to be output using the format argument, vararg or no vararg?

Yes, though it's been six for several years. (The original macros from BSD/OS only allowed up to 5).
