Vim's spell checker integrates with syntax highlighting so that the syntax can define what regions spell checking applies to.
You could find or create a syntax file to highlight and/or exclude from the spell checker all the macros and commands. First try setting filetype to nroff to see if it does what you need, since there is an nroff syntax file distributed with Vim; but I have no idea whether it will do what you want.
Alternatively, you could add all the macros and commands to your dictionary as "good" words with the zg command; but I think this is a less ideal solution.
