Dear Frank,
a new release of pgf will be finished by the end of this week, I'm
working on it currently and only copying the corrent legal notices to
the right places still needs to be done.
However, I'll have a version 1.09 out and most likely will have to
fix a few things in this because of user feedback before a stabel
version 1.10 is out a few weeks later.
I won't release a new beamer version at the same time. There,
however, the only troublesome stuff is in the examples directory. By
simply omitting the images in this directory and also the
resulting .pdf, everythings should be fine (I hope). A new version of
beamer will the fix the examples directory permanently.
Best regards,
Till
