[tex-k] Bug in dvips

From config.ps file:
% Partially download Type 1 fonts by default.  Only reason not to do
% this is if you encounter bugs.  (Please report them to
% @email{tex-k@@mail.tug.org} if you do.)
j

I created simple TeX file which contain only two lines:
test
\bye
I compile this file with MeX to .dvi file. Dvips programm produces from this
.dvi file a incomplete .ps file. After using option -j0 produced .ps file is
OK.
