The problem is caused by the pdftopdf CUPS filter which is based on
Poppler, so no Ghostscript bug.

To reproduce

ps2pdf DIMACS_Fo_Go.ps

This generates DIMACS_Fo_Go.pdf which is displayed correctly by evince
or gs.

cupsfilter -m application/vnd.cups-pdf -p
/etc/cups/ppd/<yourprinter>.ppd DIMACS_Fo_Go.pdf > out.pdf

out.pdf shows blank pages when displayed with gs and only a few
characters when displayed with evince. On the terminal appear a lot of
error messages in both cases.

pdftopdf is a part of the CUPS package and it uses Poppler. Changing bug
tasks ...
