There seems to be some confusion here.

I have not modified the definition of /STV. Actually, everything I did
modify was clearly marked with
my initials (MV).

One possible reason for your report is that I've based my fix on the version
of PSTRICKS.PRO is currently
on CTAN. It is possible that your copy of pstricks.pro was either older or
different. The way to check for this
would be for you to download a current copy of pstricks.pro from CTAN and
see if the problem occurs with it.
If does (I suspect so), then you probably have 2 choices:

        1. See if "official" PStricks taken entirely works with your setup.
                If does, then you can check my bug-fix and it should work.
        2. Forget about my posting since it does not deal with your version.

If you want, mail me your pstricks.pro and I'll take a look at what is
different.
