  Major part of the problem here is some one replaced the 4.4BSD provided
  macro sets with the groff ones.  The groff ones are not up to snuff for
  the BSD documentation, which used BSD specific hacks :-(.

You're 1/2 right.

4.4BSD-Lite did NOT provide -ms macros, only -me macros, which is why
we went through contortions to import groff-1.09 in time for FreeBSD 2.0.
