Jason, I'm not sure I follow as mandoc, new groff, and old groff all
seem to do the same thing with the _flush_cache beginning:

  GNU nroff (groff) version 1.18.1
  nroff -mandoc foo.1 | hexdump -c
  _  \b   _   f  \b   f   l  \b   l   u  \b

  mandoc foo.1 | hexdump -c
  _  \b   _   f  \b   f   l  \b   l   u  \b

  GNU troff version 1.15
  nroff -mandoc foo.1 | hexdump -c
  _  \b   _   f  \b   f   l  \b   l   u  \b
