Hi again,
Ralph Smith
Surprisingly, the invalid file access does not occur in any of the versions
you suggested, but returns when I upgrade to the current version
(8.71~dfsg2-9). For each case, I installed ghostscript, libgs8 and
gs-common debs for the test.

Package: ghostscript
Version: 8.71~dfsg2-9
Severity: normal
The behavior of the -dSAFER flag has changed between versions of Ghostscript
in Lenny and Squeeze. It now prevents -sOutputFile from working if the
input is taken interactively or from a pipe. For example:
user@host:path$ gs -q
