Subject: Re: MacOS Big Sur update breaks HTML generation

It has nothing to do with Big Sur. Most likely you've installed
a different version of pandoc than you were used to.

So, check the changelog
https://pandoc.org/releases.html

and you'll see an announcement of some changes to the default
CSS, as well as a way to disable it if you don't like it.

The html5shiv thing has always been there; it's a way to get
the HTML5 features to work with old IE versions, and it is just
a harmless comment otherwise.  (At this point we could probably
remove it. IE 9 was released in 2011, and anyone using an older
version at this point should be very strongly advised not to!)
