>Description:
It seems that mandoc(1) does not expand macros in sub-section definition (Ss),
where nroff do.
By example, installboot(8) man page output is not nice.
njoly@lanfeust [~]> mandoc /usr/share/man/man8/installboot.8 | grep 'Nx'

>How-To-Repeat:
Check installboot(8) man page, formatted with mandoc.
