With my existing documents the new version just doesn't work. The
known-problematic dvips sequence is being run instead, and all the embedded
formulae become unstripped of the HUGE white bounding box, just like in the
presently generated darcs docs (see bug #294459: HTML manual generated by a
broken tex4ht install).
When I reverted to the previous .env file (which is the default one with your
bug #229569 idea applied to it manually), things worked again with the new
tex4ht install.
If there is a way, please make the package auto-use the dvipng way of doing
things when it is installed, and also, if possible, make the dvips one
generate a normal bounding box as well...
