I think that bonsai/cvs are better at capturing this sort of information
than leaving the code looking silly; ifdefs make the code harder to
maintain, and it's not like anyone's going to go and fix up all the evil
hacks left behind 6 months ago; these things just accumulate until no
one remembers why they're there anymore.

There's something I don't understand about font handling and layout units.
I'm going to look into it this weekend and see if I can understand it
more. Clearly text should not extend into the margins, but neither should
it wrap differently when printing.
