The version of TeXLive in 4.2 was not finished and not really intended for use. I will try your test case on -current. I don't want to get too bogged down in this because TeXLive 2008 is out very soon and will replace this port. Also worth trying (as a last resort, i doubt they will make any difference) are my 3rd party texlive packages for 4.2 which I backported from -current about 1 month ago: http://students.dec.bmth.ac.uk/ebarrett/texlive/3rd/4.2/ -- Best Regards Edd --------------------------------------------------- http://students.dec.bournemouth.ac.uk/ebarrett
