 * 	Yes, it needs TeX to print dvi files for dvips when dvips is making
 * fonts...  xfig and transfig, it's to handle printing of fig files :-)

Are you sure?  You don't need TeX to convert dvi files to PostScript...
that's entirely dvips's job, TeX will take .tex and make .dvi...also,
converting fig files to PS is transfig's job, not xfig's.  xfig just
makes .fig files, and it's actually calling transfig if you use the
"export" button.
