This is because of the:

  const char *revision = "rc1";

in the generated file build/src/roff/troff/majorminor.cpp, which is used
by troff in input.cpp:init_registers()

  number_reg_dictionary.define(".Y", new constant_reg(revision));

So I'll have to make a 1.23.0.rc1.  I should be able to push a tar.gz on
GNU's alpha soon.
