There is a new test release of the PSNFSS packages for accessing
PostScript fonts in LATEX2e. This includes an update to all of the
fonts, to remove many of the underfull and overfull \hbox
warnings, and improve the setting of non-English languages.
The new release of LATEX removes all of the `hidden' uses of Computer Modern mathematics. For example, the footnote markers used to use math mode, so always used Computer Modern digits rather than ones from the current text font. This has now been fixed.
