Great, if already recognised the other two mails sent by you to the  
lists.

well, the whole pdf creation for the gimp manual is proclaimed to be  
experimental. I'll keep you up to date about the results.

I think, that I should take a moment to have a closer look, specially  
to the calspair / callout "issues" (meaning usage in the gimp manual) :)

Remember: There are only two tools in life. WD-40, for when something  
doesn't move, and should, and Duct Tape, for when something is moving  
and it shouldn't.
So does the universe explode if you spray duct tape with WD-40?
