an.tmac: fatal error: cannot render multiple documents to HTML
Except for the last line, all that spew is typical of rendering our man page
corpus as HTML.
No, the really sad part is this.
[all that crap above]
an.tmac: fatal error: cannot render multiple documents to HTML
$ echo $?
0
Something is *still* eating my god damn nonzero exit status.
And, no, bug #60782 really is fixed.
$ bash -x ../src/roff/groff/tests/ab_works.sh
[...]
+ for d in ascii cp1047 dvi html latin1 lbp lj4 pdf ps utf8
+ echo 'verifying exit status of .ab request using html device'
verifying exit status of .ab request using html device
+ printf '.ab\n'
+ ./test-groff -Thtml
pre-grohtml: fatal error: 'pre-grohtml' exited with status 1; re-run
'pre-grohtml' with a different output driver to see diagnostic messages
+ test 1 -eq 1
So this is blocked on some other bizarre bug.
