Nik Clayton ff453c1b4c Add PassiveTeX. PassiveTeX is an XML Formatting Objects processor,
written in TeX (!).  To produce high quality PS or PDF output from
XML files, you first convert them to the FO standard, and then run
PassiveTeX over them.

PassiveTeX is a library of TeX macros which can be used to process
an XML document conforming to the Formatting Objects (FO) spec.
This provides a relatively easy mechanism to convert FO files to
Postscript and PDF.
For example, to generate a PDF file from an FO file, run
pdftex --interaction nonstopmode "&pdfxmltex" file.fo
