  Neutral pion production in central 158AGeV Pb+Pb collisions has been studied
in the WA98 experiment at the CERN SPS. The pi0 transverse mass spectrum has
been analyzed in terms of a thermal model with hydrodynamic expansion. The high
accuracy and large kinematic coverage of the measurement allow to limit
previously noted ambiguities in the extracted freeze-out parameters. The
results are shown to be sensitive to the shape of the velocity distribution at
freeze-out.
