    # 'dvips_safe' is a weird option.  It is used mostly to make

    # from a bad version of dvips -- some versions would core dump if
    # the path to the source DVI contained a dot, and it's appearantly
    # difficult to determine if the version available has that bug.
    # This option gets set when PostScript output is requested
    # (because we're going to run dvips regardless, and we'll either
    # know it succeeds before LaTeX2HTML is run, or we'll have
    # detected the failure and bailed), or the user asserts that it's
    # safe from the command line.
    #
    # So, why does LaTeX2HTML think it appropriate to protect the user
    # from a dvips that's only potentially going to core dump?  Only
    # because they want to avoid doing a lot of work just to have to
    # bail later with no useful intermediates.  Unfortunately, they
    # bail *before* they know whether dvips will be needed at all.
    # I've gone around the bush a few times with the LaTeX2HTML
    # developers over whether this is appropriate behavior, and they
