commit 39745aee1c07cf0fb0b21cf0bacfc9946fd9e9f0
Author: G. Branden Robinson <[email protected]>
AuthorDate: Mon Nov 8 07:12:30 2021 +1100

    [libgroff]: Make `strsave()` more robust.
    
    * src/libs/libgroff/strsave.cpp (strsave): Call `strcpy()` only if
      `malloc()` did not return a null pointer.  Problem noted by Ingo
      Schwarze.
    
    Also update editor aid comments, dropping old-style Emacs file-local
    variable.
