this is a problem with the version of nroff on newer distributions.
The following patch fixed it for me last bakeathon:

Subject: [PATCH] cthon nroff general test workaround

Newer versions of nroff spew out a warning that cause the cthon test
to fail in the following way:

Nroff
./stat: no data in nroff.time
general tests failed

The following patch filters out the warning from the output file
generated during the test.
