I’ve gone ahead and patched trunk, but note that this means I’ve also patched
the build/ repo, so I need to go ahead and patch 2.4 pretty soon, or things
will be kinda broken in the meanwhile.
Please see the README in build/ — in particular:
The `validate-xhtml` target uses the W3C Nu HTML Checker. Download
`vnu.jar` into this directory if you don't already have it:
curl -L -o vnu.jar
https://github.com/validator/validator/releases/download/latest/vnu.jar
See https://github.com/validator/validator for details.
Give that a try, and if you’re happy with it, I’ll do 2.4 as well
