The Artifex support team has closed this bug due to insufficient information and pending testing by the submitter with our
recently release version 9.00. If it works in 9.00, then the gs tool "toolbin/search-svn-revs' can be used to help identify
the patch that cured the problem.

The comment in http://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=691639 is:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Any bug reports require a file and the ghostscript command line or details of
the invocation. Also the ghostscript version is missing.

If the command line, input to gs, and version still SEGV with the released
9.00, please re-open the bug with the rest of the information.

Yantit, does the problem still persist? Do you get further crashes of this kind? Do you have a way to reproduce this problem? If yes, please reopen this bug and tell here. Try also Oneiric (Live CD Alpha 3). Does it go away there?

Closing as there is not enough information to reproduce the problem.
