Works fine here, though my setup is not necessarily the most
interesting for testing purposes: OS X 10.4.1, TL2005.
I tried to compile both a pdfLaTeX and a XeLaTeX document. Both went
OK. Probably subjective: I have the impression pdfLaTeX is faster
(and XeLaTeX possibly slower).
Probably subjective as well: it seems the line tracing algorithm
might have changed, in that horizontal and vertical lines seem
thinner (especially in XeLaTeX).
