Subject: mandoc: Disable one test for now that is broken after the addition of
Date: Sun, 19 Aug 2018 18:58:39 -0500 (EST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <c89f180ba2971397@fantadrom.bsd.lv> (raw)

Log Message:
-----------
Disable one test for now that is broken after the addition of \).
It is not broken because of \), which is correctly implemented, but
the addition merely reveals a hidden bug elsewhere, almost certainly
in \\ handling.  Given that \\ is among the most mysterious escape
sequences and using it is very strongly discouraged in manual pages,
fixing that is not urgent - and may be hard.
