Yes, unfortunately, the Sun has old troff, which is
different from ditroff (device-independent troff).  You can
get around this with a package called cat2dit, which comes
with devps from Pipeline Associates.  I don't have their
company address handy, but you can reach the principals 
as follows:
 
Pat Wood 201-731-7860
Steve Kochan (212) 598-4650 or (212) 598-9457

We resell devps, but have never gotten around to carrying
the cat2dit upgrade.
