Does recompiling libspectre or related apps fix it? Have you reported this upstream?

No, recompiling doesn't help. By upstream, do you mean ghostscript or libspectre?

Reported upstream to libspectre, although there doesn't seem to be much activity

CC'ed. Closing this one for now as upstream.

PS: I have unrendered pictures in epdfview that are shown well in evince when reading a PDF. Maybe something different or a more general issue in GhostScript.
