I am sure that dvips version 5.90a or later are ok. I am not 100% sure
if 5.90a was the first version that fixes the problem.

A simple test is the following:

  echo '\font\x=ptmr7t\x fi\end' | tex; dvips texput -G1 -o

If you get the fi ligature in texput.ps: all is ok. Else: dvips is broken
wrt. -G1.
