Coming back to this, I now had to run
TEXINFO_XS_PARSER=0 ./texi2any ../doc/info-stnd.texi
to get the error on this system (OpenBSD 7.5). It was being exposed befor
by some of the XS modules not loading correctly. Just disabling
the XS modules completely, as with:
TEXINFO_XS=omit ./texi2any ../doc/info-stnd.info
doesn't produce the error.
Perl reports version 5.36.3.
It fails on a short input file:
---------------cut
File: info-stnd.info, Node: Index
Appendix A Index
****************
^@^H[index^@^H]
* Menu:
* _info file (MS-DOS): Custom Key Bindings. (line 6)
* -: Miscellaneous Commands.
(line 72)
* --all (-a) command line option: Invoking Info. (line 97)
---------------cut
where ^@ and ^H are single bytes (null and backspace).
I see you now have made changes (2024-12-01) for handling null bytes
in ParserNonXS.pm, so perhaps the issue is fixed in the most recent
development version. (I was testing this with an older version of
the code.)
