Just update to mandoc-1.10.6, it renders:
DESCRIPTION
clang is a C, C++, and Objective-C compiler which encompasses
preprocessing, parsing, optimization, code generation, assembly, and
linking.
Kristaps has done some very nice work recently to properly ignore
those low-level roff formatting escapes required for the po2man
standard preamble, see for example
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/usr.bin/mandoc/out.c
rev. 1.7 & 1.8
Yours,
Ingo
