Sorry, I should have specified my version and such. I'm using a2ps
4.13b on Debian GNU/Linux (Debian package version 4.13b-16). This is the
section of my modified a2ps.cfg that makes stock a2ps misbehave:

######################## Using ImageMagick for images
########## GIF files
Delegation: ImageMagick gif:ps\
        #{del.imagick} 'gif:$f' PS3:- | #{del.psselnup}

########## JPEG files
Delegation: ImageMagick jpeg:ps\
        #{del.imagick} 'jpeg:$f' PS3:- | #{del.psselnup}

and so on for the other image types. I'll attach the rest of my a2ps.cfg
too. Note the PS3:, telling ImageMagick to produce postscript level 3
output The fgets/fputs loop a2ps uses to copy from its delegates doesn't
work when the input contains null zeros, like PS3 can, so my patch tries
to fix that.

I just downloaded the CVS (took me a while to find it), and I see my
patch doesn't quite apply to it. I can recreate it if you like, but I
can't test it, because autoconf and automake refuse to run for some
reason. Probably just my ignorance about auto*.
