In my nonexistent free time I've done some more work. I'd really like

of what could get stuffed into placebox? Is there actually some kind
of global graphics state that we need to maintain as a default? It
looks like pretty much everything sets all the variables it cares
about. I'd like to change all the drawing procedures to draw at the
current point. If they want to translate to make their lives easier
they should clean up after themselves.
Sounds good.
Then the box wrapper becomes
simply x y moveto, and we don't have to waste our time pushing and
popping graphics states for no reason. By the way, in the future,
should I include patches inline or attach them? This time I did both.
The attached one is less likely to have line wrapping problems. This
patch is against the versions in CVS.
Your patch looks fine, but can you make a proper changelog entry (see eg.
http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Style-of-Change-Logs.html#Style-of-Change-Logs
You can put the log in the entry of the email. If you use emacs, just
press C-x 4 a to add it.
