New Cicero or what?

From the pdftex NEWS for 1.30:

- pdftex knows two new units: - new Didot (1nd=0.375mm) - new Cicero (1nc=12nd) But it's broken in pdftex as well. :-(

Who does things like that without actually checking that they work? It is possible to rework the arithmetic to get along with 65535, but it is certainly not a matter of merely changing the _documentation_ and not the code.

Me. I got a patch and didn't check it. :-( Best Martin
