(Peter, I CCed this to the groff list since my original message went there,
and this way the resolution is in the mailing list archives.)
I tried your wonky-char.mom version with the groff that I built (GNU groff
version 1.23.0.rc1.340-0dab6, from a recent git pull) and got exactly the
same problem: when I hovered over the link, I saw the "%23" instead of the
"#", and when I copied the link from the PDF (using right-click > Copy
Link) I got the URL with the "%23", and when I clicked on the link I got a
404 error in my browser.
This was in Preview on macOS. I tried it with Acrobat Reader DC on macOS,
and it worked fine. I tried it in PDF Expert, and it worked fine. I tried
it in mupdf on OpenBSD and it worked fine.
I'm convinced this is a bug in Apple's macOS Preview application.
Sorry for adding to the noise.
