I'm wondering if this failed because of the use of backticks in the heading? If so, I can remove and re-push...

[arfon]

This failure is due to a bug we recently introduced into our LaTeX template. I'll fix this shortly and let you know when it's updated.

[chris-prener]

OK, thanks for letting me know @arfon!
