Ah, I didn't think of that; a very good point.  Will do so henceforth.

Just did so, but alas, the problem persists.

Have done so and will be sending the bug report in later this  
afternoon (I don't have emacs configured to send mail from my home  
machine, so will be pasting the report into a separate msg after I'm  
done teaching a class).

I'm not seeing any error icons.  The first piece of latex code in the  
buffer is rendered correctly ("\section*{Introduction}") but nothing  
else thereafter.  Everything *seems* to be running properly, I just  
only ever see the first graphic in the portion of the document being  
previewed (i.e., I get the same result if I try to preview a region  
instead of the whole buffer).

Thanks for your time.
