The newest groff (1.20.1) puts "BSD" into that place, see the
following line in upstream groff-1.20.1/tmac/doc-common:
.ds doc-volume-operating-system BSD
When porting groff-1.20.1 to OpenBSD, i had to apply this local patch
to groff:
-.ds doc-volume-operating-system BSD
+.ds doc-volume-operating-system OpenBSD
Judging from the line
.ds doc-volume-operating-system FreeBSD
in
http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/src/gnu/usr.bin/groff/tmac/mdoc.local?rev=1.1
you basically did the same to NetBSD in 2003.
In mandoc, the way to do this adjustment is to locally customize
the file msec.in. You can just prepend "NetBSD" to the relevant
strings in that file and commit to the NetBSD repository.
That file is specifically intended for operating system customization.
Yours,
Ingo
