No doubt there is working man output, but the test is complaining about
excess stderr output, so you need to >/dev/null and check that there's
nothing on stderr.

PIPELINE_DEBUG=1 make -C man/es check TESTS=man1/man.1
cat man/es/test-suite.log
The relevant bit is:
Starting pipeline: /usr/bin/zsoelim | /usr/lib/man-db/manconv -f
UTF-8:ISO-8859-1 -t UTF-8//IGNORE | preconv -e UTF-8 | tbl | nroff -mandoc
-wmac -Tutf8 [input: {-1, NULL}, output: {-1, NULL}]
Simplifying and expanding out the groff pipeline, that should yield:
<man/es/man1/man.1 preconv -e UTF-8 | tbl | troff -mtty-char -mandoc -wmac
-Tutf8 | grotty
And the thing you want to gdb there is troff, so if this reproduces the
same problem, then:
<man/es/man1/man.1 preconv -e UTF-8 | tbl >man.x
gdb --args /usr/bin/troff -mtty-char -mandoc -wmac -Tutf8 man.x
Alternatively you can always try stracing it and looking for execve
lines.
