Yes, it's a bit of a crazy situation - first there's dvipdfm, which is
the original project, which isn't really developed any longer, there's
a fork which is dvipdfmx which is being developed, and it seems that's
also been forked to give the xdvipdfmx project. Would be nice if these
three codebases were merged.
