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.
