This is not a issue of mandoc(1) vs. groff(1),
but an issue of ancient vs. modern mdoc(7).
In modern mdoc, many more macros are parsed,
and many more macros are callable, than in ancient mdoc.

Thus, both mandoc and modern groff render "NetBSD" here.

Damien, your fix to avoid calling the .Nx macro is correct.

In case there is more need for discussion,
which i don't expect, i suggest to follow-up to t...@.

Yours,
  Ingo
