   I'm using Trevor Darrell's psfig.tex to include postscript pictures
   into my LaTeX figures.  I'm then using Rokicki's dvips to convert the
   dvi file to postscript for printing.  Everything works fine in single
   column style, and in twocolumn style, the pictures that are in figure
   environments come out fine, but the ones that are in figure*'s
   disappear.

You might be a victim of the following (already corrected) problem,
quoted from latex.bug:

163.  When a double-column figure or table that is too large to fit on
a page is encountered when producing two-column output, that figure and
all subsequent ones are never printed.  (Reported 13 Mar 91 by David
Long. Corrected 15 Mar 91.)

If you can supply me with an example of that behaviour with the most
recent version of LaTeX (dated March 25, 1992), I'll have a look.
