Alex I apologize for that. I also had the command line and Ghostscript version wrong. The correct command line was gswin64c.exe -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=png16m -r400 -dDownScaleFactor=4 -sOutputFile=RASTER%04d.png "pages=28 color_pages=20 - vmi20_manual.prn" GPL Ghostscript 9.05 (2012-02-08) The correct file is now attached.

The attached file works correctly with current code, both release and debug versions. So I downloaded the 64-bit 9.05 release from our web site and installed it. That too works as expected. In short, I am unable to reproduce the problem using the supplied file and command line.
Hi Ken, I downloaded the 9.06 Windows 64 binary and the problem did not reproduce so we are good. That made we wonder if the bug ever existed so I did some more testing. This is NOT a request for a bug fix. I reproduced the crash here with 9.05 Windows binary with the command line I sent you and another variation of it r72 -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=jpeg "pages=28 color_pages=20 - vmi20_manual.prn" I also built the source with version signature "GPL Ghostscript 9.06 (2012-08-08)" in Visual Studio 2010 in Win32 Debug mode, ran both command lines (previous report and above) and got the same crash in both cases. It faults here const chunk_head_t *chead = (const chunk_head_t *) ((const char *)pfree - (pfree->o_back << obj_back_shift)); 54FBAC9A mov edx,dword ptr [pfree] 54FBAC9D mov eax,dword ptr [edx] <==== Access violation Call stack > gsdll32.dll!igc_reloc_struct_ptr(const void * obj, gc_state_s * gcst) Line 1301 + 0x3 bytes C gsdll32.dll!image_enum_reloc_ptrs(void * vptr, unsigned int size, const gs_memory_struct_type_s * pstype, gc_state_s * gcst) Line 110 + 0x1b5 bytes C gsdll32.dll!gc_do_reloc(chunk_s * cp, gs_ref_memory_s * mem, gc_state_s * pstate) Line 1243 + 0x19 bytes C gsdll32.dll!gs_gc_reclaim(vm_spaces_s * pspaces, int global) Line 448 + 0x17 bytes C gsdll32.dll!context_reclaim(vm_spaces_s * pspaces, int global) Line 280 + 0x10 bytes C gsdll32.dll!gs_vmreclaim(gs_dual_memory_s * dmem, int global) Line 155 + 0x13 bytes C gsdll32.dll!ireclaim(gs_dual_memory_s * dmem, int space) Line 77 + 0xd bytes C gsdll32.dll!interp_reclaim(gs_context_state_s * * pi_ctx_p, int space) Line 432 + 0x13 bytes C gsdll32.dll!interp(gs_context_state_s * * pi_ctx_p, const ref_s * pref, ref_s * perror_object) Line 1702 + 0xb bytes C gsdll32.dll!gs_call_interp(gs_context_state_s * * pi_ctx_p, ref_s * pref, int user_errors, int * pexit_code, ref_s * perror_object) Line 501 + 0x11 bytes C gsdll32.dll!gs_interpret(gs_context_state_s * * pi_ctx_p, ref_s * pref, int user_errors, int * pexit_code, ref_s * perror_object) Line 460 + 0x19 bytes C gsdll32.dll!gs_main_interpret(gs_main_instance_s * minst, ref_s * pref, int user_errors, int * pexit_code, ref_s * perror_object) Line 242 + 0x1c bytes C gsdll32.dll!gs_main_run_string_end(gs_main_instance_s * minst, int user_errors, int * pexit_code, ref_s * perror_object) Line 608 + 0x19 bytes C gsdll32.dll!gs_main_run_string_with_length(gs_main_instance_s * minst, const char * str, unsigned int length, int user_errors, int * pexit_code, ref_s * perror_object) Line 566 + 0x15 bytes C gsdll32.dll!gs_main_run_string(gs_main_instance_s * minst, const char * str, int user_errors, int * pexit_code, ref_s * perror_object) Line 549 + 0x26 bytes C gsdll32.dll!run_string(gs_main_instance_s * minst, const char * str, int options) Line 835 + 0x1c bytes C gsdll32.dll!runarg(gs_main_instance_s * minst, const char * pre, const char * arg, const char * post, int options) Line 824 + 0x11 bytes C gsdll32.dll!argproc(gs_main_instance_s * minst, const char * arg) Line 757 + 0x19 bytes C gsdll32.dll!gs_main_init_with_args(gs_main_instance_s * minst, int argc, char * * argv) Line 226 + 0x10 bytes C gsdll32.dll!gsapi_init_with_args(void * lib, int argc, char * * argv) Line 174 + 0x1c bytes C gswin32c.exe!main(int argc, char * * argv) Line 590 + 0x17 bytes C gswin32c.exe!__tmainCRTStartup() Line 278 + 0x19 bytes C gswin32c.exe!mainCRTStartup() Line 189 C

The garbage collector's pointers have been confused, and when we try to relocate memory (or do other garbage collection tasks), the problem exhibits. This is not, however, the source of the problem. The problem occurs at the time the pointers were corrupted, which could be quite some significant time previously and is undoubtedly in a totally different area of the code. These sorts of problems are extremely difficult to track down, as they are dependent on the memory layout, and can appear and disappear very easily. The fact that I can't reproduce it doesn't mean much, which is why I didn't close the bug report. It also doesn't mean that the problem won't reproduce on some other computer, or with a slightly different command line. I'm leaving it open for Alex to have a go with Memento and see if he can find it, but this one might take a long time to resolve.
I can easily reproduce the problem on AMD64, GNU/Linux. The problem first appears in v. 9.00
The first bad revision is a5fb547c5246c71cce68ba9032a685179befa1b1 The last good revision is 35aa0a548eebb3ef4528dc334aca9235820ece2e There are about 60 revisions between, mostly committed by Michael, that I cannot compile or run.
I am getting a core dump in ps2pdf that might be another instance of this bug. I have 64 bit Fedora 17 with gcc 4.7.2, and it happens both with the gs9.06 that I built from source and with Fedora's gs9.05. I can post the file if you want. It is 4MB. I have gdb and valgrind messages below. The first valgrind warning is static bool ptr_struct_mark(enum_ptr_t *pep, gc_state_t * ignored) { obj_header_t *ptr = (obj_header_t *)pep->ptr; if (ptr == 0) return false; ptr--; /* point to header */ if (!o_is_unmarked(ptr)) <<<<------ here return false; o_mark(ptr); return true; } Something has probably gone bad to get an uninitialized variable there.

William, your sample file demonstrates an unrelated problem, which is now tracked as a bug 693561.
Ooops wrong bug reset to P4
The problem is caused because whilst relocating the pointers in a gx_image_enum, one of the pointers we try to adjust is the gx_image_enum->cie_range pointer. *But* that pointer is not a pointer to an allocated block of memory, it's a pointer into the "middle" of an allocated block. As a result there is no "header" immediately preceding the pointer target for the relocating code to use, and it gets a crazy large offset to use. I have a hacked up idea for a solution which seems to work, so tomorrow morning, I'll tidy it up, make it less hacky, and test it properly. Frankly, I'm surprised this hasn't come up before - even though images in CIE color spaces are not exactly common.
