It worked for me (on cygwin) without error or warning (last updated a day
or so ago)

(/usr/local/texlive/2017/texmf-dist/tex/generic/pgf/libraries/pgflibraryfadings
.code.tex)) (./kk022.aux) ABD: EveryShipout initializing macros
(./kk022.aux) )

No pages of output.

No pages of output.

pdfTeX warning: pdflatex: dangling objects discarded, no output file
