As part of the 2.9.14 upload, I had a look at those. The problem with
the pdf files is uh, strange:

The first uncompressed pdf is less than 4k in size, so dh_compress
ignores it. During the second run, it gains in size, so dh_compress
compresses it. The reason for the growing can be seen by the attached
two pdf files: the second one is in colour! 

So, it seems we regenerate these files and add colour to them. I'm not
aware of any special options we used, so I'm open for suggestions.

a) Do we want to have these plots with colour?
b) How to simply deal with this inconsistency?
