Update of bug #51003 (project groff):
Status: None => Need Info
Assigned to: None => gbranden

Follow-up Comment #5:
I think actually Bjarni was right here. Scrubbing those pointless mdoc/
prefixes from the arguments to the .mso calls makes it straightforward to just
run groff (even a system groff) on the built groff_mdoc.7 with the macros from
the build.
This works for out-of-tree builds:
groff -t -M build/tmac -mdoc build/tmac/groff_mdoc.7 2>&1 >/dev/null
And in-tree ones:
groff -t -M tmac -mdoc tmac/groff_mdoc.7 2>&1 >/dev/null
This happens to fix the test-groff case with no extra effort.
./build/test-groff -t -mdoc ./build/tmac/groff_mdoc.7 2>&1 > /dev/null # out
of tree
./test-groff -t -mdoc ./tmac/groff_mdoc.7 2>&1 > /dev/null # in tree
Now, the question that really animates me is why .mso wasn't screaming to
stderr when it couldn't find mdoc/whatever. It's supposed to; I was just
hacking on input.cpp:macro_source() the other day. But that's a separate
bug.
Proposed fix attached. Ingo, please comment if you have a moment.
