>From the NEWS file:

  Two new requests `de1' and `am1' which are similar to `de' and `am'
  but with compatibility mode disabled during expansion of macros
  defined by them.

Example:

  .de1 foo
  .xxx
  ..

is equivalent to

  .de foo
  .nr XX \n(.C
  .cp 0
  .nr foo_C \n[XX]
  .
  .xxx
  .
  .cp \n[foo_C]
  ..

Using .de1, the man macros now work in compatibility mode also.
