Seems libgs8 segfault.

Thanks. Quick analysis:

It would be interesting to see /etc/cups/ppd/psc_1200_series.ppd, too.

So it is an issue of the CUPS Raster output device of Ghostscript, cups.
At Ghostscript upstream we have fixed several segfault bugs in the CUPS
Raster output device (see upstream GIT log). Best is to upgrade to
current Ghostscript 9.04 (best with cups/gdevcups.c replaced by the one
from GIT

I hope it can help you,
I suspect this is
http://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=690101 but I was not
able to reproduce it. I tried the following:
cat some.pdf |

So I did the following:
- cd to some.pdf;
- pasted your script in a terminal.
Now I have a really big file (1,4GB) out seeming not readable and a
other file err with lot of debug things.
Hm, sounds like it didn't segfault for you, either. I will think
more.
