The attached patch enables us to move XFig files to the temp directory and
continue to generate DVI files, etc that show any included picture files.

The next step is to add an ability to iterate over the specialized copier
functions and ascertain which ones have been added and which ones have
been removed from the system defaults. Oh, and add stuff to the
Preferences dialog to enable users to add and remove 'em.

I won't apply this until I've finished the stuff above, but it now works
as-is. Perhaps someone else would like to test it out?

The patch also 'fixes' Jean-Marc's additions of quotes so that execvp
doesn't fall over immediately. Certainly, preview is working again, but
the 'fix' is clearly less than sophisticated.

I'll apply this last bit soon if there's no objection.

As ever, all suggestions are welcome ;-)

Incidentaly, is there a more elegant (shell script) way to ascertain
whether two directories are the same than:

# If the "to" and the "from" files are in the same directory,
# then we're done.
PRESENT_DIR=`pwd`
cd `dirname "$1"`
FROM_DIR=`pwd`

cd `dirname "$2"`
TO_DIR=`pwd`

cd $PRESENT_DIR
test "$FROM_DIR" = "$TO_DIR" && exit 0
