Dear Maintainer,

the manual page of dvisvgm does not validate, i.e. lintian reports an
warning:

(arm64-sid)hille@rasppi3:~/dvisvgm-3.6+ds/doc$ LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 MANROFFSEQ='' MANWIDTH=80 man --warnings -E UTF-8 -l -Tutf8 -Z dvisvgm.1 > /dev/null
troff:<standard input>:157: warning: name 'an-trap' not defined

The manual page is generated out of an XML file using xmlto. I've tried to
build a minimal example, which does ot convert into a valid manual page.
It is attached.

Steps to reproduce:

1. xmlto -m conf-dblatex-man.xsl --stringparam man.authors.section.enabled=0 man dvisvgm-man.xml
2. LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 MANROFFSEQ='' MANWIDTH=80 man --warnings -E UTF-8 -l -Tutf8 -Z dvisvgm.1 > /dev/null
