Sorry I jumped the gun on merging #414002 with #618530.  Let's see...

 $ wget http://mirror.ctan.org/graphics/pstricks/contrib/pst-geo.zip
 $ unzip pst-geo.zip
 $ mkdir pst-geo/testcase && cd pst-geo/testcase
 $ cat <<\EOF >test.tex
\documentclass[letterpaper,12pt]{article}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage{pstricks}
\usepackage{pst-map2dII}
\begin{document}
\psset{xunit=0.70,yunit=0.70, path=../dataII}
\begin{pspicture*}(-9,-4)(10,9)
\WorldMapII[maillage=false,all=true,level=5,borders=false,linewidth=0.01\pslinewidth,linecolor=gray]
\end{pspicture*}
\end{document}
EOF
 $ latex test.tex
 $ dvips test.dvi
 $ gs -dSAFER test.ps

But I do _not_ find that to be the case here.  So I imagine something
has changed, and that the modern incarnation of this bug has the same
cause as bug#618530 after all.

Am I understanding correctly?  What package does this prevent from
building from source?

Thanks,
Jonathan
