Ghostscript 8.71 broke pstoraster (sig11) or I missed something?
Hi, after update of ghostscript to 8.71-1 my printer started to behave weird, it only prints totally black or white pages. In error_log I see that pstoraster crashes with signal 11 but I wasn't able to get any more information. After downgrading to 8.70-4 it works again. Should I do something that I missed during that update or this is just GS issue? My printer is Epson SX600FW and I use GutenPrint driver (latest, 5.2.5). Anyone noticed that too or this is single issue?

Same issue for me with Epson DX3850.
Back to 8.70-4.

Same here. Has anyone reported it?
The most similar bugs i find are:
http://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=690506
http://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=688252

http://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=690033

But none of them seem to be this exact problem.

Hi,
the bug should be fixed since ghostscript revision 10890.
Til now I couldn't test it but maybe someone of you can try this svn revision.

I tested the patch that was posted there from the latest svn. Current PKGBUILD worked with the patch and fixes the problem. Reported the patch on the Arch bug tracker so the devs can backport it if they want.
