Details:

  Man-pages include "doc"-macros with a request ".mso mdoc/...".

  The directory "mdoc" does not exist in the git-repository.

  A fix could be to create the directory and links in that directory
to the "doc-" files (doc-common, doc-ditroff, doc-nroff, and doc-syms).

  A comment in "doc.tmac":

.\" Modified by address@hidden as follows: the doc-* files are assumed to be
.\" installed as mdoc/doc-* rather than tmac.doc-* (the filename
.\" `tmac.doc-common' would be too long); when using groff, the doc-* files
.\" are loaded using the `mso' request.
