I'm having trouble with the Amoeba docs from <math.macalstr.edu> and am
wondering if anyone else has had the same.  Specifically, the Unix
utility "pic" often produces figures that only vaguely resemble what
they should look like.  Some have strings like the following scattered
around the picture:

	D'~ 1.350i 0.000i -1.350i 4.088i'

and some have strings overwriting one another on the figure.

I certainly don't expect a debug over the net; I'm wondering if there's
something wrong with the tarfile or if anyone else found this and fixed
some error in the scripts.
