Bug#405994: hevea fails on \urldef on multiple lines

[Samuel Mimram <smimram@debian.org>]

Package: hevea
Version: 1.09-3
Severity: normal

Hi,

Hevea fails on the following example, which is perfectly accepted by
LaTeX:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{url}

\urldef{\debian}{\url}
       {http://www.debian.org/}

\begin{document}
Debian is here: \debian.
\end{document}

When I try to compile this file with hevea, I get:

% hevea test.tex
./test.tex:5: Parsing of argument failed
Giving up command: \Url
Giving up command: \url
Giving up command: \urldef
./test.tex:5: Error while reading LaTeX:
        Eof while looking for argument
Adios

The problem is not present if I put the \urldef in one line i.e.:

\urldef{\debian}{\url}{http://www.debian.org/}

Of course, putting the \urldef on multiple lines could be considered as
bad style but here I bumped into this problem when trying to generate the
documentation for the latest version of coq, and the .tex are automatically
generated (I'd rather avoid patching coq)...

Thanks!

Cheers,

Samuel.
