Bug Description

Hi,

when experimenting with LaTeX math conversion, I encountered a bug of parsing the \underbrace and \overbrace constructions. This problem occurs only when the option --no-fonts is not applied. In such cases, all the chars of which the brace is composed are put in one <text> element and the rules (correctly placed) after this element.

After further testing, the problem seems to be in the sequence "char – rule – char" in the DVI file (with nothing between), since constructions like
x\leaders\hrule\hskip1cm y
exhibit the same behaviour (however, just changing the font of y fixes everything).
