Good to know--maybe I'll be able to get more tests to pass,
though I haven't yet. But right now I really only want to
ask about this:

The difference is the msw "C:" drive letter:
  expected CMD /c c:/fop-0.20.5/fop
  observed CMD /c   /fop-0.20.5/fop
IIRC, some end users in field offices install to a drive other
than "C:". How can the "expected" command work for them? If
they install to, say, "E:", then do we give them a variant
configuration file that specifies "F:/fop-0.20.5/fop"?

Also IIRC, Vadim deliberately has no "C:" drive. And I sometimes
run archived lmi versions from "F:", and "File | Print preview"
works in that case, though I have fop on "C:". My configuration
file says
  <xsl_fo_command>CMD /c /opt/lmi/third_party/fop-0.20.5/fop</xsl_fo_command>
without any drive letter...so I don't see why we need one. But
the only way to be sure is to test a field-distribution CD.
