Follow-up Comment #6:

Fixed in 518577df68d021335f49e227f8866f4b98e947ca.


    man pages: Comment compatibility-mode switching.
    
    The '.do' and '.cp' requests (both groffisms) are some of the more
    obscure features of groff's own man page corpus.  Consequently, they get
    cargo-culted around, within and outside groff.  Thanks to Werner Lemberg
    for the discussion, which revealed (to me) that groff ships with
    compatibility mode on by default on Solaris 10 and 11.
