[bug-gs] 8.13 and Mozilla PS Files

[Jesse Pavel]

Hello,

With AFPL Ghostscript 8.13, if I try to process a Mozilla-generated
PostScript file using the x11alpha device, I get an assertion-failed
message and gs aborts. I'm using the 8.11 font release, and have
included the output of gs before it aborted. GNU Ghostscript 7.05
has no problem with these files.

One such file that causes this error I've posted at

http://pathwayjr.com:8001/jpavel/Temp/mozilla-output.ps.gz


Thanks for advice,
Jesse
