Surely you mean

  \# Content-Type: application/x.groff; charset=...

or some vnd. or prs. sub-facet....

This brings up two things:

It's a pity charset was made a parameter of Content-Type, instead of being
a separate Content-Charset header.

How should sub-types such as groff be registered? They're not defined by
a particular vendor, so vnd. doesn't apply. Neither are they defined by
one person, so prs. is also out. (off-topic, I know)
