I'm a bit uneasy about that change, as described, but that may be because
the description has been a bit vague.  Please note you may absolutely
*not* change the signatures of the terminal API entry point functions from
unsigned int to int.  That would cause undefined behaviour.  What you do
at the interface layer between pdf.trm and libpdf doesn't matter, as long
as it improves things, but the interface between pdf.trm and the rest of
gnuplot should be considered cast in stone.

Could you please mail me (or the list) that patch for inspection?
