Description

I tried running ./x.py test locally and got this error:

Research direction

Run ./x.py test and inspect the broken-link references in reference/print.html, reference/crates-and-source-files.html, and reference/types/never.html. Use src/bootstrap/src/core/build_steps/tool.rs and test.rs to understand the linkchecker entry point; done means the four Infallible links resolve and ./x.py test completes successfully.
