AFAIK, groff has never used automake; I hope it never does.Why not? I find it quite convenient to use for my own project (ttfautohint).
If it works for you, great. My experience has been that it creates more problems than it solves; indeed, I have a hard time understanding what problem it actually does solve.
groff already has a comprehensive Makefile system, which does not depend on automake; why jeopardise it to migrate to something with nothing better to offer?
