    [groff]: Regression-test Savannah #68430.
    
    * src/roff/groff/tests/handle-right-brace-escape-as-macro-argument.sh:
      Do it.
    
    * src/roff/groff/groff.am (groff_TESTS): Run test.

commit 106f3b48121a369b801fa630e4e4e1d0b7c2a1ff

    [troff]: Fix Savannah #68430.
    
    * src/roff/troff/input.cpp (decode_macro_call_arguments): Handle
      right-brace escape sequences in macro arguments consistently with past
      groffs, and Solaris 10, DWB 3.3, and Heirloom Doctools troffs (but not
      _quite_ like Plan 9 troff, whose macro argument handling differs from
      all the others).
    
    Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?68430>.  Problem introduced by me
    in commit ebf943aa66, 2026-04-20.
    
    Also completes fixing <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?42675>.
