Till, unfortunately I don't fully understand how to do that. I've
experimented some more and believe there are several problems. One is
with "ghostscript" - it appears to be called by xdvi, and doesn't play
well with it. If you xdvi the dvi file and zoom in to level 5 of zoom,
the right border gets chopped off. Also, as you know, there is the
ps2pdf problem. Finally, the dvips command that comes with the newest
texlive doesn't seem correct either.

What I've done is re-install ghostscript 8.61, texlive from year 2010,
and the "fixed" ps2pdf and things are looking better (although still not
the same byte for byte). I still need to do a page by page comparison
with my old saved pdf file...

The newer ghostscript and texlive aren't playing well together, for
reasons that are beyond me.
