cups-filters is ultimately to blame for this: It relied on undocumented pseudo-postscript calls recently removed from Ghostscript because they turned out to cause security issues. The bug should be fixed in a recent update to cups-filters. Thanks for reporting. Next time you file a bugreport, it helps if you try check for existing bugs first, including bugs that "affects" the package you intend to file a bug against.
