Bug #61950 seeks to give user-relevant items in this file more visibility.

The "at least" range can potentially be widened: I have Netpbm 10.70.0 and get
the warning, though only when giving -Thtml to the latest groff, not groff
1.22.4.  But because this item was only recently added to PROBLEMS, I presume
some recent groff change provoked the warning.

The diagnostic certainly seems to be spurious for me; as I mentioned, my
generated .png files look fine.

Curiously, "-quiet" seems to be an undocumented option in this version of
pnmcrop.

$ pnmcrop -quiet /dev/null
pnmcrop: Error reading magic number from Netpbm image stream.  Most often,
this means your input file is empty.
$ pnmcrop -loud /dev/null
unrecognized option '-loud'.  Recognized options are: -black -white -sides
-left -right -top -bottom -verbose -margin -borderfile
