 > Fine.  I'll just leave it "broken" for ricci to fix.  This isn't my
 mess.

 Well, I'm lobbying for a different fix because I think it is the right
 fix, but don't let me get in the way of progress. :)

 Your fix - if you provide variants in both xpdf and poppler and
 set some consistent defaults - does solve the immediate problem
 of the conflict, as you point out. If you think it would take a long
 time to get (what I believe is) the proper fix, then perhaps you should
 apply your simple hack now. We could leave this bug open - or close
 this one and open a new clean bug with a clear summary of where we
 are and where we need to go, based on our discussion above.

 otoh if ricci could do the proper fix now, that would make me
 the happiest.
