[Orgmode] org-write-agenda failure

On Mac OS X 10.5.8, GNU Emacs 23.2.1, Org Mode 7.4,
setting the following:

(setq org-todo-keywords
        '((sequence "TODO" "WAIT" "DONE")))
(setq org-todo-keyword-faces '(("WAIT" . "lightgoldenrod2")))

has the intended effect, with WAIT items properly displayed, ... *until*
I do org-write-agenda in the Agenda buffer (writing to "foobar.pdf"),
which fails in ps-print with the stack trace shown below.
(The failure is not dependent on the color chosen in the string.)

Note, however, that when doing the following instead
everything works:

 (setq org-todo-keywords
        '((sequence "TODO" "WAIT" "DONE")))
 (copy-face 'org-todo 'org-wait-face) ; bug with string when doing org-write-agenda
 (set-face-foreground 'org-wait-face "lightgoldenrod2")
 (setq org-todo-keyword-faces '(("WAIT" . org-wait-face)))


In the former case (which fails), the problem appears in the call

  (ps-face-attribute-list '(:inherit org-todo :foreground "lightgoldenrod2"))

but if the property list is itself wrapped in a list as

 (ps-face-attribute-list '((:inherit org-todo :foreground "lightgoldenrod2")))

then this function does not raise an error.

This seems like a bug to me, as I'm pretty sure I'm matching the
documented form required for org-todo-keyword-faces (in both cases),
but I could be wrong. I have not had a chance to track this down all the way, but I thought I'd
pass it on in hopes it is either helpful or will help someone show me the error of my ways.

Thanks for your help. The backtrace for the original problem is given below.
