It seems that you are in compatibility mode which disables long names
(\*[...], \[...], etc.). Why? If you run groff without option -C it
works as announced.

\*Tm doesn't work. For two-letter string names, either use \*(Tm (the
classical variant) or \*[Tm]. Giving groff the `-ww' argument to
enable all warning messages yields
warning: macro `T' not defined
warning: macro `l' not defined
warning: macro `r' not defined
Try this instead:
\*R \*(Tm \*(lq foo \*(rq \(lq bar \(rq
