And it does not work for me with a later version of org mode!

Thanks for the explanation on how the browser to use is identified; I
know this already (although I must admit it was not the most
straightforward thing to figure out initially...).  I have my settings
specified to use x-www-browser by default.  

My point above was simply that the actual results are not symmetrical:
as C-c C-e d uses docview to show the PDF despite my mailcap etc
pointing to the use of apvlv for viewing PDF documents.  I don't believe
I have set anything anywhere to tell org to use docview mode.

In any case, it's easy enough for me to open the PDF in Emacs w3m (C-c
C-e p followed by direct invocation of w3m).

It's one of the options for the browse-url options.

Thanks again,
eric
