>Description:
	apsfilter's regular call (in 7.1.1 and 7.2.2) to convert PDF
	data into postscript

          acroread4 $ACROREAD_OPTS -pairs "$APS_TMPDIR/pdf" /dev/stdout

        fails with a 'permission denied' on reading "$APS_TMPDIR/pdf".
        Replacing "/dev/stdout" with some real file makes acroread
        work. -> Any kind of i386 linux emulation problem?
>How-To-Repeat:
	Install apsfilter and acroread, install at least one printer
	and try to print a PDF file with it.
>Fix:
	The following diff is at least one (avoid using of
	'/dev/stdout'):
