[DVIPDFMx] dvipdfmx still can't support latex's animate package

[Jin-Hwan Cho]

Dear luoyi,

I could get a pdf result without any problem. Actually, to compile  
your codes, at least
you need

1. the recent dvipdfmx (or xdvipdfmx), version 20080607 or later

2. appropriate dvipdfmx.def for the latex graphics bundle

http://project.ktug.or.kr/dvipdfmx/contrib/latex/dvipdfmx.def.sample

3. appropriate pgfsys-dvipdfmx.def for the pgf graphics

http://project.ktug.or.kr/dvipdfmx/contrib/generic/pgfsys-dvipdfmx.def.version2
http://project.ktug.or.kr/dvipdfmx/contrib/generic/pgfsys-dvipdfmx-patch.tex.version2

after \usepackage{tikz}, run \input{pgfsys-dvipdfmx-patch} if you need  
image masking
and transparency group. Actually your sample does not require this  
patch.

Anyway, the result is attached. Please check whether it is right or not.

Best regards, ChoF.
