[tex-live] tl2016,tl2018: broken psnup shipped

[Ilya Zakharevich]

With (at least) tl2016 and tl2018 the compiled psnup is ignoring the
arguments (at least -H, -W — and probably -h -w as well).

The version is tl2009 is OK.  [Checked on Windows 7.]

The first time I saw this bug was in the end of '90s IIRC (it was an
update in Solaris which broke it — I needed to fall back to the
previous binary version.)  I think that at the time is was widely
known that one should avoid the newer version! 

Do not know how it happened that the broken version squeezed in
between tl2009 and tl2016…
