So nobody objected. If nobody does before EOD (End Of Day), I'll install
the Makefile change.

BTW, I tried to do the change to the .tex files to use pdftex (for the
future), with an annex file like the following :

\input ifpdf.sty

\ifpdf
  \def\pdflayout=(#1#2){
    \if0#1 % A4
      \pdfpagewidth=21cm
      \pdfpageheight=29.7cm
    \else\if1#1 % Letter
      \pdfpagewidth=8.5in
      \pdfpageheight=11in
    \fi\fi
    \if l#2 % Landscape
      \edef\oldwidth{\the\pdfpagewidth}
      \pdfpagewidth=\pdfpageheight
      \pdfpageheight=\oldwidth
    \fi
  }
\else
  \def\pdflayout=(#1#2){}
\fi


but I was unable to find the `csplain' binary file, so I couldn't test
my try for all .tex files.  Does someone have this file and know if
there's a cspdfplain ?
