of echo

Follow-up Comment #8:

The only groff problems turned out to be my non-portable use of echo in some
test scripts.

I see the pnmcrop diagnostics on Mac OS X as well, but they are harmless; the
images linked by the pic-*.html and webpage.html files look intact and
correct.  It appears that some versions of pnmcrop ignore the command's
`-quiet` flag, which pre-grohtml is definitely passing to it.  So, not our
problem.

    * src/roff/groff/tests/break_zero-length_output_line_sanely.sh:
    * tmac/tests/s_PN-works.sh: Migrate from `echo` to `printf` for test
      inputs containing backslashes to be interpreted literally.
