testfile to reproduce the runtime exception

Hi there, 

the Just-In-Time-Debugger (MS VS 2005) reports "Unbehandelte Win32-Ausnahme in
gswin32c.exe [2280]" (this is german for: unhandled Win32-Exception) 

Unbehandelte Ausnahme bei 0x100c6fe3 in gswin32c.exe: 0xC0000005:
Zugriffsverletzung beim Lesen an Position 0x00e97000. 
(segfault?)

The exception occurs when you use -sPAPERSIZE= 
or -dDEVICEWIDTHPOINTS= and -dDEVICEHEIGHTPOINTS= 
in combination with -dCompatibilityLevel=1.3 and -sDEVICE=pdfwrite. 
Without of changing paperlayout, or using -dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 no exception
occurs.

This exception occurs with gs9.01 but not with gs8.71


To reproduce here a batch-file-contents: And you can test with the attached
file (lecture notes with friendly permission by Prof. Alda).
