There's one part of these bugs which we agreed upon to fix, and that is the setting of a papersize special, or the respective setting in pdftex. In other words, we don't want to change the layout, but we want to have *some* information about paper size in DVI files, and *nonrandom* info about that in PDF and PS files. Without that, you don't even get what the layout was meant for, but just what someone put in the default configuration file. And that might very well not come out of your printer at all...
