As discussed on IRC, this is actually a feature ;)
Using lint (lore -o lint) will warn that the document is malformed (in this
case, missing a title tag), so Lore makes no guarantee to be able to do
anything with it... I'm not interested in encouraging HTML-style "let's
parse any old crud that looks vaguely recognisable".
That said, giving a traceback is pretty rude. I'll patch it to give a
friendly message suggesting you run lint to find out why Lore can't process
your document, and probably provide a --debug, in case people still want to
be able to see tracebacks (like me :).
