Added, thanks.

It seems that an internal make rule is taking precedence over the
`.y.cc' rule in Makefile.comm -- does Sun's make program has an
option to deactivate the built-in rules?  groff's makefiles should be
self-contained.

Since I never got such a report please tell me which version of Sun
make you are using.

It should work with Sun's make also.
