The long and short of it is that merely adding the line \usepackage{pstricks} or \usepackage{pst-all} causes compilation to fail.  I'm adding this line in the header after \documentclass{article} and before \begin{document} There is also a statement \usepackage{graphicx} before the pstricks statement but removing this doesn't seem to change the story.
