It seems, that for my needs, I can replace
 -sPageList=1
by
 -dFirstPage=1 -dLastPage=1
which should do the same, but does not fail with the new ghostscript
version.

Anyway, both variants are still mentioned in the documentation
(https://ghostscript.readthedocs.io/en/gs10.02.0/Use.html), so they
should work as before, so this is still an important bug in the new
ghostscript version.

Greetings
Roland
