The dvips in the sipb locker does not seem to work
with the palatino font.  I have a single page latex
article that I can print fine using 
/usr/athena/bin/latex and /usr/athena/bin/dvi2ps
but fails if I use the tools in /mit/sipb/bin.
It produces a blank page postscript file.

I have included the file below along with a transcript
of my attempt at processing it.

Let me know if there is anything else you need
to reproduce this bug.

Garde-toi du Jaseroque, mon fils! \\

As-tu tu\'{e} le Jaseroque? \\

O jour frabbejeais!  Calleau!  Callai! \\
Il cortule dans sa joie.\\
