I just tried building postgres-US.pdf on a RHEL-derived system, 
Scientific Linux 6 using openjade-1.3.2-36.el6.  That gave me lots of 
"Overfull hbox" errors, then died like this:

! pdfTeX error (ext4): \pdfendlink ended up in different nesting level 
than \pd
fstartlink.

                                                   \endNode{}\Node%
!  ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!


Here are some Debian/Ubuntu platforms that all run into the other problem:

Ubuntu 9.04, openjade 1.4devel1-19:  flow error
Debian Squeeze, openjade 1.4devel1-19 : flow error

I always assumed that the reason this didn't work, but the Fedoras did, 
was because of a difference between 1.3 and 1.4.  Maybe a forward port 
of that 1.3 patch would help.  I'm not sure what state RHEL6 is really 
in though, I don't fully trust my SL6 system yet for this task.
