--- Comment #3 from G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com> ---
I can reproduce the problem on my Debian system with the following.

$ zcat /usr/share/man/man1/mksh.1.gz | groff -man -Tutf8 | head

is  a command interpreter intended for both interactive and shell
script use.  Its command language is a superset of the shell lan‐
guage and largely compatible to  the  original  Korn  shell.   At
times, this manual page may give scripting advice; while it some‐
times  does  take  portable  shell scripting or various standards
into account all information is first and foremost presented with
in mind and should be taken  as  such.   Please  refer  to:  Most
builtins  can  be  called  directly, for example if a link points
from its name to the shell; not all make sense, have been  tested

In other words, all I had to do was say "-man" instead of "-mandoc".

That would make this a duplicate of bug #273245 (and bug #273565).
