[tex-k] bug in dvips 5.86d in partial font downloading

[Tom Kacvinsky]

Did you reencode the font multiple times?  This is where the bug is at -- say
sfrm1000.pfb is used with two different encodings.  Then the font subset will
not alwys contain the corerct glyphs and the writet1 module will report an
error.

I have a sample laying around here somewhere.  I will see if I can dredge it up.
