Aah. Someone wrote me in less than two hours! (I like USENET!!!)

Thanks to Alois Steindl.

The combination of PS and NFSS is found in (surprise!) psnfss. The package is
found in the directory 
	pub/archive/macros/latex/styles/base/nfss/psnfss
(as of 30 Oct -92)

Using the package is a simple matter of copying *.sty *.sup to the input path,
and use, say, style options [newlfonts,times].

I even found an error in my installation ;-( (I had defined TFMPATH wrong for
DVIPS; using virtual fonts translating into resident fonts made DVIPS load TFM
files, which didn't happen before.)

So, now I'm a happy camper, once again.
