    m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_URW_FONTS_CHECK): Freshen URL.
    
    * m4/groff.m4 (GROFF_URW_FONTS_CHECK): Update wording of notice when URW
      fonts are not found.  Replace dead URL with working one.  Try to hedge
      against the future, but the Web is an ephemeral place, as are the file
      names Artifex gives to its fonts.  Thanks to T. Kurt Bond and Thomas
      Dupond for reporting and investigating the problem.
    
    Fixes <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?60604>.
