% Due to TeX's damnfool static memory pools (calloc()?  what's that?)
% we have to go through contortions here because we're running out of
% memory.
% So we define a command "popbox" which is identical to LaTeX's "usebox"
% command, except that it destroys the box after using it (thus freeing
% some memory up).  The only difference between the definition of "popbox"
% and "usebox" is that I have "\box #1" where LaTeX has "\copy #1".
