When creating png images of latex fragments in org-create-formula-image,
the :scale option in org-format-latex-options is not currently honoured
(it's commented out). My dvipng documentation says

       -x num

           Set the x magnification ratio to num/1000. Overrides the
           magnification specified in the DVI file.  Must be between 10
           and 100000.  It is recommended that you use standard magstep
           values (1095, 1200, 1440, 1728, 2074, 2488, 2986, and so on)
           to help reduce the total number of PK files generated.  num
           may be a real number, not an integer, for increased
           precision.

I don't know what a magstep is, let alone a PK file, but it seems to
suggest something like the patch below. Is there any reason not to make
a change like this?

Also, this looks to me like a typo in the docstring of
org-format-latex-options, is that right?
