[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Package: emacs
Version: 25.1.1
Tags: patch
The woman2-roff-buffer function uses unwind-protect to restore
the canonically-space-region, insert-and-inherit and
set-text-properties functions it temporarily overrides.
Unfortunately, the first thing (conditionally) called in the
‘unwind’ branch is the woman2-format-paragraphs function, which
may result in error, thus precluding said restoration, leading to:
set-text-properties is an alias for ‘ignore’.
(set-text-properties &rest IGNORE)
Do nothing and return nil.
This function accepts any number of arguments, but ignores them.
Please thus consider the patch MIMEd.

Shouldn't this rather be combined into the existing unwind-protect
around the while?

Due to the (not (eobp)) guard, I’ve assumed that the
woman2-format-paragraphs call in the ‘unwind’ branch is for some
sort of fallback processing (in the case the while loop fails.)
If the call ended up there by mistake, indeed a progn should be
used, as per the updated patch MIMEd.

Hmm, looking at this again, I'm not sure. That is, it's clearly
fallback processing in case the loop ends before going through the whole
buffer. But does it also make sense as fallback processing when some
kind of error was signaled in the loop? I don't know.

I've decided that it doesn't make sense to do any further processing
once we've hit an error.
