If you think you have found problems, please open bug report(s) but note 
that PDF/A validators are not without their own problems. Also if you start 
from a PDF it may not be possible to create a fully compliant PDF/A file, 
and it may not even be possible to tell that it isn't possible.

gs-devel is not an appropriate place to report bugs.

NB if you are going to open bugs then please *attach* the relevant file to 
the bug report, don't just put a URL in the report.
