No. There's a big graphics patch (now broken!) for you to look at. I'll post 
it again. Perhaps you read the description in the mail I posted entitled BIG 
graphics patch?

There's a patch for the forked calls controller that I'll try and finish this 
evening.

There's a patch to use this to convert graphics asynchronously that I still 
have to write but it quite small. Basically involves creating a copy of the 
converters::convert method in GraphicsConverter. The new method will generate 
a shell script to do the work and launch it out with fork(). I'll make a 
simple method that'll work for "simple" conversions that don't need parsing 
after each step!

That'll give us asynchronous graphics loading that should be enough for pre1.
