I seem to have solved this, although I've no idea why it now works. I
noticed that the problem didn't exist with svp (which I have to handle
pdfs when in a linux console -- I never managed to get bmv to run).
Anyway, to fix this problem I added a sleep 1 line to the end of the
mailcap entry:
image/*; /usr/bin/zgv --zoom-reduce-only --zoom -m '1024 768 24' %s \; sleep 1;
test=InPlainTerm
Bizarre, but never mind...
