Correction: gsfonts-other is not the problem.  Sorry about
that.  I lost my mother and two good friends a few weeks ago.  My
concentration is still off.

The problem with typesetting.mom spitting out "Failed to open font
'NR'" stems from processing the file with pdfmom (i.e. with -Tpdf).  
The devpdf font is U-NR, whilst the devps font is NR.  Ditto
U-PR/PR.

I'll fix typesetting.mom so that it can be processed with either
-Tps or -Tpdf.
