Hmmm.... When I checked last time (end of this August) -- latest version was 1.11 and it added to package only one documentation file and few Makefiles (Small contribution for two years of development, isn't it ?). Comments you can find at src/contrib/groff/ChangeLog. Anyway I'll check that is groff-1.11.1.tar.gz.
