Well, if you want to, you can update just mandoc(1) and man(1)
to -current on OpenBSD 5.6, it is compatible.  Don't try mixing
versions in general, but in this particular case, it works.
Here is what i just did on the mdocml.bsd.lv server to try it out:

   $ cd /usr/src/usr.bin/mandoc/
   $ make cleandir  # just in case sb. did "make" w/o "make obj"
   $ cvs up -dP -rHEAD
   $ make obj
   $ make cleandir
   $ rm -f obj/*  # because arch.o lib.o vol.o existed in 5.6, not in 5.7
   $ make depend
   $ make
   $ sudo make install
   $ sudo makewhatis

Yours,
  Ingo
