Summary description: Full set of fonts for text and math typesetting

Kpfonts loads the amsmath package, except if you use the
'noamsmath' option.
It was not good if you want to use 'amsmath' with one of its
options.
With the 3.1 release, you can use the options of 'amsmath'
as options of 'kpfonts'. They are simulated or passed to
'amsmath'.
