%These commands fix the pdf sizes to be in true units. \mag@fix\pdfhorigin \mag@fix\pdfvorigin \mag@fix\pdfpagewidth \mag@fix\pdfpageheight
if this patch should be implemented at all (the current way is much cleaner and more intuitive, as e. g. \pdfhorigin is handled naturally like any other TeX dimension, after the description in the TeXbook) then one should not forget that the list is not complete: There is also \pdflinkmargin, \pdfdestmargin, and \pdfthreadmargin to be modified.
...and the sentence in the pdftex manual "Or, you can preadjust the \type{\pdfhorigin} value before typing \type{\mag}, so that its value after the \type{\mag} command ends up at 1~true inch again." would be wrong as then there would be a double-"correction". Any users having used this tip would wonder about suddenly wrong dimensions. I'll have to check my posters... Regards, Hartmut
