Using a private `pretest' of Emacs and a public alpha of PSGML, you
should be prepared to investigate bugs in them, or at least make a
report to the correct address.

 Paul> I do not know the cause of the problem (bugs in Emacs 20.2.96?), 

It's due to a bug _fix_ for Emacs 20.3.  I don't know whether a hack
for backwards compatibility in this case will be in the eventual 20.3.

It's not specific to Windows systems and is hardly a good reason to
avoid Emacs 20.3 when it's released.  I understand PSGML has had the
appropriate fix applied for a future version.  If that isn't available
when 20.3 is released I'll post what's necessary to get it going at
that stage.
