lout-3.12 generated PDFs are unreadable by Aladdin Ghostscript 5.10

[Greg A. Woods]

I recently thought I'd give lout-3.12 a try and since it can supposedly
output PDFs with some link information I thought I'd try generating PDFs
from a few of my documents to give this feature a try.  The only PDF
viewer I currently have immediate access to is Aladdin Ghostscript 5.10.

Here's an example error:

I'll upgrade to GS 5.50 as soon as I can, but I thought in the mean time
I should report this problem in case it's more generic....

Meanwhile I'll go back to using gs itself to generate PDFs.   ;-)
