Log Message: ----------- If the body of a man(7) .MT or .UR block is empty, do not emit a warning. Leaving the body empty is legitimate in this case if the author only wants to display a mail address or URI without providing a link text. Output modules already handle this correctly: terminal output shows just the URI without an accompanying text, HTML output uses the URI for *both* the href= attribute and as the content of the <a> element. The documentation was also wrong and claimed that an .MT or .UR block with an empty body would produce no output. As explained above, this isn't true.
