I had forgotten about that...  I don't know postscript, but I just
now tried fiddling around with it and managed to see the figures with
gs.  What I did was extract the figures with a text editor (they
seem to be embedded as separate ps programs near the end of the
file) and removed a single line (SVDoc restore) near the bottom of each.
(I tried to removing these lines inside the whole file, but it still
didn't work.  But it works fine if each figure is put into a separate
file...)
