Is this why the PDF version of the Haskell report looks so strange? On my
system (Win98 and Acrobat Reader 4.0) it looks like the baseline oscillates
up and down between each letter. I find it very difficult to read. I've seen
the same effect on other PDF-converted technical reports which were
obviously produced with TeX/LaTeX. With Acrobat Reader 3.0 on Solaris, I
don't see the same effect, although the lettering looks very cruddy (even
with anti-aliasing on) and is equally hard to read.

I had been meaning to mention these facts earlier... It would be nice if
someone could regenerate the Reports.
