Subject: [PATCH] Ensure a device has raster memory, before trying to read it.
Bug #697676 "Null pointer dereference in mem_get_bits_rectangle()"
This is only possible by abusing/mis-using Ghostscript-specific
language extensions, so cannot happen in a general PostScript program.
Nevertheless, Ghostscript should not crash. So this commit checks the
memory device to see if raster memory has been allocated, before trying
to read from it.
