There are a couple of solutions.  One would be to advance your lens 1/4% of its
focal length.  Easier said than done. <g>

The other is simply to close down a bit.  As long as you are not shooting close
and not using a long lens, stopping down to about f8 or f11 should give you
enough depth of field to correct most focusing errors.
