I was planning on it.  Just so I understand, 3.x will not have it's
groff updated?

I've got a workaround on my systems, but documents are misdated under
groff 1.11 without a fix (and I don't know that my fix is
comprehensive - I just fixed problems I saw).  At one point FreeBSD
was making a big point about being Y2K compliant.  If that's still an
issue, well, groff 1.11 isn't Y2K-compliant and ships installed on
FreeBSD systems.  If not, I'm apparently the only one using groff to
write papers. :-)
