FIXME: make it work on NetBSD and OpenBSD.
While their groff creates the html correctly the man page itself is not
rendered correctly. Instead it creates things like:
       Please report any bugs to the $@ <MTO>
       We recommend to subscribe first at $@ <URL>

So sadly, my checks are insufficient to detect systems where this
works (because they kind of announce they do while they dont).

I am trying to fix this/get help from BSD people but since the produced
code is actually correct I'd rather commit it anyway and let them fix
their groff... I'd rather host flashrom.8.html sooner than later.
