-Subject: [PATCH] DSC parser - validate parameters
-
-Bug #697190 ".initialize_dsc_parser doesn't validate the parameter is a dict type before using it."
-
-Regardless of any security implications, its simply wrong for a PostScript
-operator not to validate its parameter(s).
-
-No differences expected.
