Upgrading to gs 8.0 means that it runs with -dSAFER as default, which
convert doesn't like; hence the error. 

Before, I had had gs 8.0 installed, but lyx, and convert, were finding an
older 6.53 that was still hanging around on the system (I think). Deleting
this has meant (of course) that 8.0 was now being used. Setting
GS_OPTIONS=-dNOSAFER allows it to run.

The only reason I had this was that an image failed to convert before I
deleted the old version of gs. This must have been due to something else
though, I presume.

I guess I'll need to wait for an update to convert.

Further to this,

convert x.eps x.pnm

on the command line gives a similar error. What could possible cause
this?
