Don't know anything about Groff?

I don't have a working copy of this but I know of someone that says they have
been able to port GNU C to the 3B2.

Don't know?

I have have GNU Emacs, working on my 3B2.  I'm currently working on getting
Bash Shell to work on my 3B2, I don't have it working yet, but again I know
someone that has it working.

Please post any other software that has been ported, as I am interested in
what is out there.
