[xep-support] PostScript segmenting occassionally

We are experiencing an intermittend problem.  When rendering an FO to
PostScript, if it works it produces the following header...

%!PS-Adobe-3.0
%%Title: Untitled
%%Creator: Unknown
%%Pages: 344
%%EndComments
%%BeginProlog
%%BeginResource: procset Common_XEP_procedures

... which is what we expect.  Every so often, though, the very same FO
produces the following:

%!PS-Adobe-3.0
%%Title: Untitled
%%Creator: Unknown
%%Pages: 40
%%EndComments
%%BeginProlog
%%BeginResource: procset Common_XEP_procedures

Notice the Pages: is 40 when it should be 344.  All of the pages are
there, but bound into small sections, each section has a header
similar to the above, but sometimes 36 pages, sometimes 41 pages, etc.
 All of these sections add up to 344 pages.

If I render the FO using the command line, it always works.  Using
Actina, if I drop the FO by itself, it always works.  If I drop in 12
FOs at a time, and it worked too.  But in production, this always
fails (although it's difficult to tell what the difference is
load-wise).

We need the PostScript to render the first way.  Is there a parameter
I can set to force XEP to always render PostScript in the desired
fashion?
