Bug description:
I noticed after my poppler upload that the "doc-rfc" tests are failing
https://objectstorage.prodstack4-5.canonical.com/v1/AUTH_77e2ada1e7a84929a74ba3b87153c0ac
/autopkgtest-bionic/bionic/amd64/d/doc-
rfc/20180410_090135_46f84@/log.gz
These tests basically zcat a ps.gz file to pstotext. It's this that is
broken. See:

Unrecoverable error: undefined in DELAYBIND

but downgrading ghostscript libgs9 libgs9-common to the previous
version 9.21~dfsg+1-0ubuntu3 fixes it:
