File that block the printer

As described in 

http://lists.cairographics.org/archives/cairo/2008-April/013738.html 

some postscript files generated by cairo completely blocks the Dell 5100cn
printer.

It seems that offending commit is 6f9d71c10bf3e38c88378950037d1c81a2413617.

I attach to this message two files, one that prints (07g.ps) and one that not
(06b.ps). 07g is a subset of 06b, both are trimmed versions of the same file
generated by cairo. They do not seem to be very different to me, only one is
longer (the difference is 400 lines ~ 100 characters). And both are pretty
boring .... 

One remark, the version of cairo that I used to produce the original file is
not 1.5.20, but 1.5.9 just after the commit that create problems. But cairo
1.5.20 produced files have the same issue. 

This bug seems to be similar to bug 15348
