I had the same problem here ... I even went so far as trying to hack up
the macros, still with unsatisfactory results.  I ended up putting 
everything back like it was and putting the caption inside an invisible
box in the pic.  This worked okay, but seems like a terrible kludge.

If anybody has a better idea, please post - thanks!!
