A notice for Hans: can you please browse down for \externalfigure[\jobname-something.tmp]
I always thought that only \externalfigure[\jobname-buffername.tmp] works properly. But then I figured out that in my MikTeX distribution \externalfigure[buffername.tmp] works and \externalfigure[\jobname-buffername.tmp] doesn't and in the standalone with latest beta it's exactly vice-versa. Seems like partially backward-compatibility problem in either case. Hans?
