Hi folks,

I'm trying to track down the root of the problem that's causing images in
the PS and PDF versions of the Handbook to break.

So far, it looks as though there isn't anything wrong with the markup
per se, as a copy of the Handbook as of 2001/09/01 exhibits the same
problem (and I know that things were working OK around that timeframe).

Which means something in the toolchain's broken.  Either the
stylesheets, teTeX, or one of the utilities that generates the images.

I *really* want to avoid having to binary search through various
versions of all the ports involved, as that'll take an age.

So, if you've got a copy of the Handbook in PS or PDF format, and the
images (particularly the installation images in chapter 2) work OK for
you, and you know the date the PS or PDF was generated, please can you
follow up with that information so that I can narrow the search down.

Ta.
