Thanks to Woody for posting the eexec stuff.  I'm still rooting through
it, but it looks like it will help.

We found that the interpreter we purchased to port to our printer, the
MT906 PS, had the same problem that Woody described concerning handling
cr/lf in hex data.  We found that our problem was at a very low level,
not even in the interpreter actually.  We corrected the problem by
modifying how we handled cr and lf in the character input routine.
I can't speak for other hardware configurations, but that was where our
problem was.
