That misses the problem. mpost already generates the lines that you
suggest.

Maybe, the following sample makes the bug more clear:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{graphicx,nopageno}
\begin{document}
2
\includegraphics{fig.0}
\end{document}

If I run this (latex test; dvips test -o), I only get the "-" and the 2
from fig.0. The 3 is omitted. If I change line 4 to 23, then I get both
numbers from fig.0. Even if I remove line 4 entirely, everything comes
out right.

I have no idea whether this is a known limitation of dvips or if this
is something that can/ought to be fixed. A possible fix might be to
automatically disable partial font downloading for fonts that are used
in graphics such as fig.0. Another fix (much harder, I guess) would be
to scan fig.0 for the characters which are actually needed.

> It seems ok in 5.94b (without -G1). Please try 5.94b.

Strange. I still get wrong results with "dvips(k) 5.94b" (with -G0 as
well as with -G1).
