Tagged PDFs need a redefinition if used

[leomayer]

I tried to use the following example:

\DocumentMetadata{
    pdfstandard = ua-2,
    lang = de-AT,
    pdfversion = 2.0,
    testphase = latest,
}
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[margin=3.5cm, showframe]{geometry} 
\usepackage{needspace}
\usepackage{kantlipsum}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\begin{document}
    \kant[11-14]
    \begin{itemize}
        \item first item
    \end{itemize}
    \needspace{5\baselineskip}
    \hypertarget{test-label}{Quick label}
    \kant[62-65]
\end{document}

which causes an error:

Package tagpdf Error: The number of automatic begin (10) and end (9)For immediate help type H <return>. \end{document}

Ulrike proposed a fix to my question:

\makeatletter

\renewcommand{\needspace}[1]{%
  \ifhmode \ifinner \@LRmoderr \else \par \fi \fi
  \begingroup
    \let\save@endpe\if@endpe    %save @endpe status
    \@tempskipb \lastskip
    \vskip -\@tempskipb
    \setlength\dimen@{#1}%
    \advance\dimen@\@tempskipb
    \vskip\z@\@plus\dimen@
    \penalty -100
    \vskip\z@\@plus -\dimen@
    \vskip\dimen@
    \penalty 9999%    
    \vskip -\dimen@
    \vskip\@tempskipb % reinsert \lastskip    
    \global\let\if@endpe\save@endpe %restore @endpe status
  \endgroup
}
\makeatother

perhaps its useful to apply the fix here as well.
