I'll report a bug to groff(1) about the issue with the line count.

Thanks, Alex.  There appear to be some very old bugs around input line
number tracking in GNU eqn, possibly going back 30+ years.

Heh!  It feels good finding 30-yr-old bugs :)


I've committed a regression test[1] and fix.[2]  The fix can be expected
(along with literally hundreds of others) in groff 1.23.

Yeah, I'm waiting[1] for that release to have 'make lint' be usable by contributors. But it's been already proved in this patch set that it can be useful to catch things that I miss, even if I have to run it.

And now I see I managed to sneak a cosmetic indentation error into the
commit message for the second (but not the ChangeLog), where I'm stuck
with it forever.  Oh well.

:)

Cheers,
Alex
