Dear seminar developers,

The following small document, when processed with LaTeX and dvips, gives
postscript file which has errors:

Current allocation mode is local
GNU Ghostscript 7.07: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1
************************************

The error occurs on the _third_ page, i.e. outside the slide
environment. It seems that \end{slide} doesn't properly close \overlay's
scope, since after removing the commented additional braces, the error
goes away.

It might not be an error in fact, but it should at least be documented,
I think. I have tested it with the files included in the latest
teTeX-beta.=20

When answering, please be so kind and keep the bug number in the Cc, so
that the mails get properly archived.

Thank you in advance, Frank

Crashing is \textit{not} the same as collisions. Here are some
examples why this is the case:
