I found a bit more information.  First, I had only turned on DEBUG logging
for the root category (non-DSpace code).  This morning I also enabled DEBUG
logging for logger.org.dspace as well, and found confirmation that the media
filter is running the "pdftoppm" command and producing output.  

The problem seems to be occurring in the call to "ImageIO.read(outf)".  From
the online documentation for the javax.imageio package for Java Platform SE
6, the "*read*" function:

Returns a BufferedImage as the result of decoding a supplied InputStream
with an ImageReader chosen automatically from among those currently
registered. The InputStream is wrapped in an ImageInputStream. *If no
registered ImageReader claims to be able to read the resulting stream, null
is returned.* 

This is most likely the problem.  Any ideas why there would be no registered
ImageReader for a PPM input stream?
