I'm writing an "appendix" macro in troff with MM macros.  I want
the pages numbered like A-1, A-2, etc.  I can get this numbering
at the top of the pages themselves, but the page numbers listed
in the table of contents (TOC) come out as 1.

Anybody have an idea?

Try using the following:

  .HM A
  .nr H1 0

before your first appendix.  This will set the heading style for the
top level section to A, B, C, ... .  Then you can use

  .H 1 "Appendix"

and the table of contents should be fine.
