We had a similar sounding problem here. Note heads were not printed via dvips
running on Vaxen and MIPS machines, but were OK on Sun3s and Sun386i, and by
other back-ends. There turned out to be an endianism assumption in repack.c
(all versions including 4.21). The diffs below costs a little speed, but are
portable and seems to work. Your line-numbers may differ.
