It's silly, but we learned this today and it may be useful for others.
To do spanish hyphenation in troff simply put the attached sphyphen.tex
at /sys/lib/texmf/tex/generic/hyphen/sphyphen.tex
and then bind it to (i.e. use it instead of)
/sys/lib/texmf/tex/generic/hyphen/hyphen.tex before running [tn]roff.

Wow, that sure is nonintuitive. troff really looks in the *optional*
TeX tree for its hyphenation rules? What if you don't install TeX?

I don't have tex installed, I found by looking at the troff
source that it was using the tex hyphen rules too and that I had
one installed despite not having tex.
