See

The user is printing on a large-format printer with Gutenprint (a CUPS Raster
driver). pstoraster only crashes on the biggest page sizes, so it seems that
crash is related to the amount of data per page which has to be handled.

Please contact the reporter of the Ubuntu bug for getting more information if
needed.
