Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, it does not help much. When I
remove the pdf option, it compiles without problems but does not produce
any overlays -- both frames are displayed simultaneously. The same can be
achieved if I simply remove all \overlays and \fromSlide{#}{..} commands,
but this is not what I need.
