EPS test failure on arch #238

Description

@radarhere

You may have noticed that Tests/test_file_eps.py::test_1 is currently failing on arch - https://github.com/python-pillow/docker-images/actions/runs/15409133995/job/43357474596

It is currently using arch's ghostscript-10.05.1-2 package.
I last saw it working with arch's ghostscript-10.05.0-3 package.

I've reported it at https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/ghostscript/-/issues/3, and they have confirmed that there is a problem.

    After further discussion, I have reported the problem to Ghostscript themselves - https://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=708608

    Ghostscript responded that fixing this is not a top priority, and now the Arch Linux team is pondering whether they should update their code instead.

    Ghostscript did end up fixing this.
