Follow-up Comment #1:

I agree with the intention.
I cannot see any good reason why nroff(1) should pass through -w and -W but
not -E.

However, the patch #33113 is wrong and must not be committed.  It discards all
standard error output, not just error messages.

Writing a better patch is trivial, see 44289_schwarze.patch.
