[l2h] pstoimg bug?

[Dan Scholnik]

I think I found a bug in pstoimg in the 99.2alpha[89] dist.  I noticed
that the inline math bitmaps had too much extra space at the bottom, so I
ran latex2html with -debug.  A typical image creation log:

# begin snippet #

 at /usr/local/bin/latex2html line 4139
# end snippet #

in the process of turning the .ps image to a .png, pstoimg created 3
temporary files: stuff.t00, stuff.t01, and stuff.t02, with increasing
amounts of cropping.  The stuff.t02 is what I <think> I want, it is
fully cropped.  But stuff.t01 is what winds up written as img67.png,
and winds up in my document.  I'm guessing this is a simple counter
error or something, and I've been looking through the file, trying to
learn Perl.... :)

This happens to pretty much all run-of-the mill math, so I'm not
including any examples unless I'm the only one with this problem.
