fop is not an option for me(Debian) as it apparently requires non-free
Java stuff.

The xmltex bug looks well-known (e.g. Debian bugs #170477, #181444,
#184072, #184086, #234884), and the reports point out that running
"pdfxmltex happy.fo; pdftops happy.pdf" works (although the output
doesn't look /quite/ right, e.g. "- -4pc - -4pc" appears at the top of
each page).


Thanks
Ian
