sage -f jsmath-image-fonts-1.3p1 appears to finish without error. It
produces:

==================================================
I restarted sage, and the notebook, but the jsmath font display
problem persists.
I have made some progress in that I discovered that Firefox 3 works
correctly on my work PC. It is only IE 7 that has the problems. I
can live with this, so I will not invest any more time on this issue,
unless someone wants my assistance to try to beat this bug to death.
