[tex4ht] [bug #527] tex4ht gives Dimension too large with @arstrutbox when using longtable

[Michal Hoftich]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #527 (project tex4ht):

It seems that your table is too tall and you got TeX error due to that. I've
redefined the \LT@start command that cause this issue to omit the dimension
checking and it seems to fix the issue. More details and configuration file ar
at TeX.sx.

I was getting the error

  Overfull \vbox (22903.01811pt too high) detected at line 2038
! Dimension too large.

As part of compiling a very large Latex file using tex4ht and this happens
inside a longtable

I worked long time to reduce it to the minimum possible example.

The MWE is still too large to post, as it happens on a long longtable. So at
the end of this post, I have link to zip file on my page to download the latex
file called KERNEL.tex and log files it generated.

Using tex4ht and compiling using the command

 make4ht -ulm default -a debug KERNEL.tex "htm"

Gives error

[FATAL]   make4ht-lib: Fatal error. Command htlatex returned exit code 1


There is no problem compiling using lualatex KERNEL.tex

I also updated my TL installation now to make sure I have latest version on my
Linux system.

The problem happens using tex4ht only, and using any more. Either mathjax or
not as the above command shows.

Why does this error happen and is there a workaround? Please find the zip file
here (safe link. it is my own page)
