node_check() does a simple node traversing and runs throe the hlists/vlist
 recursively. 
the function shows all the nodes (table, figure, page number, etc.) when i use a vpack_filter.
but with pre_output_filter i couldn't see all the nodes (using the same function).

I'll try to figure out everything after holidays. thanks a lot!
