Vlad sent a nice link about special arguments to dvips to improve
things:
  http://www.physics.ohio-state.edu/~yurh/doc/tex2pdf/

Using those, I created a better document:
  http://www.bluetail.com/~luke/misc/erlang/distel-user.pdf

But you can see there's much room for improvement. Here is the output
from texi2pdf, which is absolutely excellent except that the darned
diagram isn't scaled correctly:
  http://www.bluetail.com/~luke/misc/erlang/distel-user-native.pdf

Next step is to investigate why the picture doesn't scale
right. Perhaps it was naive of me to convert a diagram from EPS to PDF
with ps2pdf..
