i'm trying very hard to keep the set of packages small, and would
desperately like to *not* have to drag anything tex-related into it.
besides, AFAICT, i can generate postscript with FOP. for testing

building various formats with their toolchain, and you can generate
postscript nicely without all of the above nonsense.
