Patch now updated to -2, there were further vulnerabilities found
about a week later.  This was messy (Artifex's master git is only
accessible from a web interface, picking out sufficient patches to
be able to apply the needed ones was very error-prone), and I lacked
an exploit. I've now been given one, and to my shock it came as a
PDF - I thought this was only for .ps files.

So, now fixed (patch is in patches/, will be picked up when the book
is next rendered). Please update if you use ghostscript, particularly
if you install the shared lib.  Thanks.
