I have been using Ghostscript 2.5.1 under XR5 on a Sparc IPC running SunOS 4.1.1
compiled using the bundled compiler cc.

Right thats the hard/software details over with. Now the bug...

There seems to be a problem with erasepage and transfer functions.

Execute the following code :-

%!
{ 1 exch sub } settransfer
erasepage
showpage


This should cause the page to be black, as the transfer function should reverse black
and white, but it doesn't it just blanks the page in white.

The code executed correctly when sent to an Adobe interpreter or RALpage
