        groff before CVS: release 1.05

and part of CHANGES there says

    The -mdoc macros have been upgraded to the version in the second
    Berkeley networking release.  This version is not completely
    compatible with earlier versions; the old version is still available
    as -mdoc.old.

So you may find a hint in an old BSD that can code to process them.

Cheers, Ralph.
