mandoc from 2022-10-26 and from 20 minutes ago agree on the following:

Given:
  .de St-p1003.1-2024
  .Tn \%IEEE No Std 1003.1-2024 Pq Dq Tn \%POSIX Ns .1 \\$@
  ..
then
  .St-p1003.1-2024
  .St-p1003.1-2024 ,
  .St-p1003.1-2024 .
all work as expected.
But
  .St-p1003.1-2024 ;
causes -Tlint to produce
  ERROR: incomplete escape sequence: \$\&
  ERROR: argument number is not numeric: \$\&

Bookworm mandoc (1.14.6-1+b1) instead -Tlints as
  ERROR: argument number is not numeric: \$\
and formats as

All punctuation works as expected under groff.

Best,
