Ah, well that could be it:

$ pdftex --version
pdfTeX (Web2C 7.3.1) 3.14159-0.13d
kpathsea version 3.3.1

I assume that the version you are referring to it the "-0.13d" part of
the pdfTeX version string.  (I thought that TeX was supposed to be
"bug-free", didn't Donald Knuth say so? ;-))

This is the tetex 1.0.7 from the base Slackware 8.0 installation that
I use at work.  Again is there a simple way of fixing just the
"pdfTeX" part of my TeX installation, without having to upgrade the
entire thing?
