           Summary: PCLSelectFont' : 141 not according to the reference
                    manual.
           Product: GhostPCL
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P4
         Component: PCL interpreter
        AssignedTo: henry.stiles at artifex.com
        ReportedBy: hintak at ghostscript.com

while looking at Bug 692991 (XL assembler and dissasembler don't work with
python 3.0) I came across this earlier change on those scripts:

...............
commit 9a015bf889ea43c050fcf652c37d3c786483e243
Author: Henry Stiles <henry.stiles at artifex.com>
Date:   Fri Nov 11 14:09:09 2011 -0700

    The PXL assembler and dissassembler had the incorrect attribute code
    for PCLSelectFont and the PCLSelectFont attribute name was missing
    from a debug name table.

    CLUSTER_UNTESTED
................

It changes 'PCLSelectFont' : 173, to 'PCLSelectFont' : 141 . Since there is no
bug number nor test files mentioned, I cannot verify if that's the case
(presumably there is a test file which necessitate this change). 
"the PCL XL Feature Reference Protocol Class 3.0 Supplement" does explicitly
states that value to be 173 in the appendix on page 26, so if the reference
manual is wrong, this probably should be mentioned in a comment near relevant
codes...
Anyway, something needs to be done.
