I have zero idea what happened, but if you run k{trace,dump} on it, you'll see that FONTPATH isn't being added to the string for opening a file in /usr/src/contrib/groff/. I have no idea why this code isn't running. Groff is written in C++, so maybe some constructor wasn't getting called or something. Although a really, really quick look didn't explain it to me. I was able to fix a system showing this by manually building groff and then doing a clean buildworld.
