By golly, you're right. I don't have enscript installed, but I have
"use_enscript = 1" and I just set "enscript_path = /usr/bin". The
result is that if I hit the markup view in ViewCVS for Subversion
stuffs, the pages never serve up, and I have a ton of ViewCVS process
all running. The result is a wedged repos.
