    [devpdf]: Error reporting.
    
    * src/devices/gropdf/gropdf.pl (GetType1, GetChunk): Perform
    rudimentary check we are given an Adobe type 1 font, and die
    immediately if binary format invalid. Include font filename
    in error messages.
    
    Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?67295>. Thanks to

    [grops,groff,troff]: Handle putenv failure better.
    
    Parallelize diagnostic messages relating to putenv(3).
    
    * src/devices/grops/ps.cpp (main):
    * src/devices/grops/psrm.cpp (resource_manager::output_prolog):
    * src/roff/groff/groff.cpp (xputenv):
    * src/roff/troff/input.cpp (main): Consistently compare `putenv()`'s
      return value to an integer literal, rather than letting it pun down to
      a Boolean.  Phrase diagnostic message consistently.  Consistently
      report `strerror(errno)` on failure.

    [xtotroff]: Reword some error diagnostics.
    
    * src/utils/xtotroff/xtotroff.c (MapFont, main): Tweak wording of error
      diagnostics; favor "cannot" over "unable to" or "can't".  Also quote
      name of environment variable.
    
    See commit 6154b19609, 26 June.
