Bug description:
  In order to convert a PDF file in PNG I use the command:

  » convert "myfile.pdf[0]" test.png

  Which gives this error:

  convert-im6.q16: FailedToExecuteCommand `'gs' -sstdout=%stderr -dQUIET 
-dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -dNOPROMPT -dMaxBitmap=500000000 -dAlignToPixels=0 
-dGridFitTT=2 '-sDEVICE=pngalpha' -dTextAlphaBits=4 -dGraphicsAlphaBits=4 
'-r72x72' -dFirstPage=1 -dLastPage=1 
'-sOutputFile=/tmp/magick-11774WIkYdVETEs9I%d' 
'-f/tmp/magick-11774JZhknqCDhkN0' '-f/tmp/magick-11774twGtf-JFihri'' (-1) @ 
error/delegate.c/ExternalDelegateCommand/462.
  convert-im6.q16: no images defined `test.png' @ 
error/convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/3258.

  So I tried using ghostscript directly:

  » ghostscript -dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -dNOPROMPT
  -dMaxBitmap=500000000 -dAlignToPixels=0 -dGridFitTT=2
  -sDEVICE=pngalpha -dTextAlphaBits=4 -dGraphicsAlphaBits=4 -r72x72
  -dFirstPage=1 -dLastPage=1 '-sOutputFile=test.png' '-fmyfile.pdf'

  Which gives an error:

  [1]    10954 segmentation fault (core dumped)  ghostscript -dSAFER -dBATCH 
-dNOPAUSE -dNOPROMPT -dMaxBitmap=500000000

  If I omit -dFirstPage=1 -dLastPage=1 it works properly:

  » ghostscript -dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -dNOPROMPT -dMaxBitmap=500000000 
-dAlignToPixels=0 -dGridFitTT=2 -sDEVICE=pngalpha -dTextAlphaBits=4

  Please note that it also affects imagemagick convert command and PHP
  readimage command. I have confirmed the bug on Ubuntu 16.04 too.

  The recent ghostscript 9.26 version is definitely guilty.
