This issue affects the versions of the ghostscript package, as shipped
with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, 4, and 5.

--

This issue affects the version of the ghostscript package, as shipped
with Fedora release of 12.

This issue does not affect the version of the ghostscript package, as
shipped with Fedora release of 13 (updated ghostscript package is already
present in Fedora 13 -testing repository and will shortly reach -stable
branch).
