While I perfectly understand you former patch, I right now do not see
the advantage for your new approach. Besides, are you sure it does not
break backwards-compatibility???

Another even more important issue: different OS.

I never really have used LateX on windows so I can't say anything.
Recently I had to deal with a Mac, OS Lion with MacPorts. This is almost
a linux-like environment (there is texlive and okular, which right now
does not work for me and evince (and of course xpdf,  but this seems not
appropriate for forward+inverse search).

So it boils down to this: which configuration (viewer) should be used
for Mac?
