Oh, boy! My own personalized installer. Finally, I'm 'published'.
Will that be its permanent name?
If you can confirm that it fixes your problems then I'll move it onto
the wiki.
It resolved the problem on my one test document (the one I sent you),
and at this stage of my career (acute laziness) I'm happy to generalize
from samples of size 1. So, yes, I think the problem is fixed.
Not to be paranoid, but when you counted up the 50 or so non-path
characters, was that for the maximum possible argument list to the
specials command? I know virtually nothing about specials, so I don't
know if PSFile and the bounding box stuff was all it ever gets, or
whether under some circumstance the argument list might become Dickensian.
