We recently upgraded to Ghostscript 9.02. We are getting the following error messages when I try to load some of our test files that we use for regression testing new versions of Ghostscript. I saw that a similiar problem was reported today for 9.01 on Windows and that a patch was provided. Will there be a similiar patch provided for 9.02 on SunOS (SunOS 5.10 Generic_141414-10 sun4u sparc SUNW,Netra-440) and/or RedHat Linux (2.6.18-128.1.10.e15PAE #1 SMP) soon? I will try to get a file ready that I can attach to this bug. The documents in question contain confidential information that would need to be edited out before I could send an example. I wanted to ask if there was or soon will be a 9.02 SunOS or Linux patch before I attempt that, as editing the confidential data out can sometimes edit out the issue as well.

You could try the patch from this bug: http://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=692176 which was giving a similar error message.
Remove customer field, this is not an Artifex customer, AFAIK.
In the absence of any feedback from the reported on whether the suggested change worked or not, closing.......
