I tried your example as sent, and I had no margin intrusions--are you
having hyphenation problems? Is cmr still your default font? (Or are you
perhaps using UK hyphenation rules?)

I noticed that too. It seems a feature interaction with corner rounding--
I suspect they were never intended to go together. You'll probably need
to get into MetaPost for proper fancy bordering.

Yeah, I just went with the default margins/layout and turned on the page
frames to more clearly/minimally illustrate the example. This *ought* to
work with any sane layout...
