 I removed the two occurrences of '${OPSYS} == "SunOS"' and the package 
 now builds for me. And "man pkgdepgraph" shows a readable man-page.

 Maybe, in a way...
 
 There is /usr/share/lib/tmac/an which seems to be found by Solaris' 
 "/usr/bin/nroff" (which is probably the native SysV thing), and there is 
 /usr/share/groff/1.19.2/tmac/an-old.tmac, which seems to be used by the 
 preinstalled groff.
 
 As I wrote earlier, the toolwrapper decides to use /usr/bin/gnroff as 
 nroff and so ends up using groff.
 
 OTOH, "/usr/bin/nroff -man files/pkgdepgraph.1" does not result in a 
 formatted man-page, just a block of aligned text.

 I'll open a separate PR...
