Testing this prerelease on those platforms where groff 1.24.0.rc2 had
problems:
* On CentOS 7 and Alpine Linux 3.18, the build now succeeds and all tests
pass — even without configure option --without-urw-fonts. In other
words, the unavailability of the URW fonts was detected at build time.
Perfect!
* FreeBSD 14.0 and 15.0, NetBSD 10.0, OpenBSD 7.8 there is 1 test failure:
FAIL: src/preproc/tbl/tests/boxed-TH-tables-work-on-utf8-device.sh
