I'm working under linux with teTeX (web2c)
and get some strange behavior of l2h when changing from
l2h98_1 to l2h98_1p4
following is the complete outcome of ./install-test for l2h98_1:

This is configure-pstoimg V96.2 by Marek Rouchal
Welcome to the Configuration of pstoimg!
You will be guided in few steps through the setup of pstoimg, the part
of
latex2html that produces bitmap images from the LaTeX source.
Type `configure-pstoimg -h' for a brief usage information and a list of
user-definable options.
Hit return to proceed to the next configuration step.
Pstoimg can support both GIF and PNG format.
Please note that there are certain legal limitations on the use of the
GIF
image format.
If you go on, pstoimg will be configured for GIF or PNG format.
You may reconfigure pstoimg at any time by saying configure-pstoimg.
Which format do you want to have supported?
Answer g (GIF) or p (PNG).

Ghostscript Configuration
=========================
Ghostscript is "/usr/bin/gs", Version 5.10
Pstoimg will use the ppmraw device.
Ghostscript library path is /usr/local/share/ghostscript/5.10
Hit return to proceed to the next configuration step.
Netpbm/Pbmplus Configuration
============================
ppmtogif is /usr/local/bin/ppmtogif
ppmtogif understands -transparent. Good!

Using netpbm to make transparent GIFs.
Using netpbm to make interlaced GIFs.
Hit return to proceed to the next configuration step.
Setup pstoimg
=============
Updating local configuration file...
Well done!
Pstoimg is now hopefully configured to run on your system.
Type `pstoimg -h' for a brief usage information.
Please specify the desired image format in the file latex2html.config.
Configured this way l2h is running fine
besides the warning that dvips is not found
(it is in the path /usr/local/bin)
and here the configuration for l2h98_1p4:

this is all!!!
running l2h complains for not finding local.pm
even worse:
configure-pstoimg by hand
gives the following:
Subroutine getcwd redefined at Override.pm line 186.
Statement unlikely to be reached at Override.pm line 217.
(Maybe you meant system() when you said exec()?)
Found = in conditional, should be == at Override.pm line 272.

Ghostscript Configuration
=========================
Fatal Error: "gs" not found. Pstoimg won't work.
You must have Ghostscript installed on your system. You can
find
Ghostscript as source code or precompiled binary on every
major
ftp site. If you decide to build your own gs do not forget
to
include the pnmraw device for best latex2html performance.
Current version of Aladdin Ghostscript is 4.03.
