OK. This is now fixed. The postscript driver was making assumptions
about the nature of the shear applied to the font which were not
valid. A more detailed transformation makes the results consistent
with the other drivers. This is a bit of a kludge still - the angle
theta is not strictly the rotational part of the transformation
matrix. It is the angle of the baseline calculated in plsym.c which is
not the same thing.

This is now the only postscript issue remaining. What exactly is your 
problem here Alan?  (I've not looked too closely at this bit of code 
yet).
