This version of Redhat has only just gone out of support.

But what if some other user had this - not a developer? Would it not be senisble to at least check that the documentation being built properly? I'd like to see this error detected, rather than silently ignored. If somewhat has Latex intalled, but for some reason it is not working as expected (too old, missing fonts, or whatever), then it would seem wise that this is detected if possible. The fact we can get more than 20000 error messages in the log file, but all doctests pass, is not good IMHO.
