Description Phil Venton 2000-12-05 11:01:02 UTC 
When trying to convert a PDF document to lvl2 PostScript, pdf2ps exits with
SIGSEGV.

The document in question contains encrypted components (the document owner
information).  The updated pdf_sec.ps file for Ghostcript was downloaded
and installed from:

http://www.ozemail.com.au/~geoffk/pdfencrypt/

For reference, the document being converted was the "Securing and
Optimising Linux: Red Hat Edition" guide, from linuxdoc.org.

Segfault has been reproduced on two seperate boxen.  Kernel 2.4.0-0.26smp.
