I tested trunk :

=== TESTING ===

1. Apply patch, rebuild one language: ./build.sh en
./build.sh validate-xml : OK
./build.sh fr : OK
./build.sh validate-xhtml : OK

2. Inspect generated .html — verify DOCTYPE is HTML5
First two lines of bind.html.fr.utf8 :
<!DOCTYPE html SYSTEM"about:legacy-compat">
<html lang="fr"><head><META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">

3. Run: java -jar vnu.jar --skip-non-html ../bind.html.en.utf8
Ran directly ./build.sh validate-xhtml : OK

4. Confirm void elements are not self-closed (<br> not <br/>)
No <br/> found in manual directory

5. Spot-check pages render identically in browser
I committed bind.html.fr.utf8, didn’t see any rendering problem.

All things seem to be OK

Great job Rich !
