Follow-up Comment #1, bug#63334 (group groff):

This produces some incorrect syntax: printf's "%04x" conversion produces hex
digits with lowercase letters, but groff needs uppercase.  Changing the "x" to
"X" corrects this.

The news gets better (or worse) when you fix the above syntax error.  Now 8
characters are handled as expected, 23 are converted to unrecognized \
characters, and 2 are not recognized at all.
