I'm continuing to look at the build system, and studying the output of make
doc see lots of the following:
Overfull \hbox (plus some other stuff)
Looking on the web for what this means, I found
http://docs.freebsd.org/info/texinfo/texinfo.info.Overfull_hboxes.html which
says:
"TeX is sometimes unable to typeset a line without extending it into the
right margin."... "unless told otherwise, TeX will print a large, ugly,
black rectangle beside the line that contains the overfull hbox."
There are quite a few of these in, say, the 2.14 NR - see the PDF page 33
and 37 for example. I don't think these should be there (although I had
previously assumed they were change bars).
It would seem there are 2 options: either fix the text/diagram sizes, or
compile as suggested in the page above:
"To prevent such a monstrosity from marring your final printout, write the
following in the beginning of the Texinfo file on a line of its own, before
the `@titlepage' command:"
@finalout
Could someone from the documentation team confirm that the bars are
unintended and have a think about what should be done?
