I also worried about the other functions mentioned in TN 5044.  However
I do not have any examples of files which will show a problem.  If you
have any such files that you can send then please send them.

I do not understand what you mean by this statement.  It seems to be
a repeat of your first issue.  If not then please explain.

I see 2 issues here:

(1) TN 5044 defines many more operators but the proposed patch doesn't
implement them. There are files that test for "findcmykcustomcolor"
and assume that the whole bunch is available.

(2) It is only a matter of time before we find a file that doesn't work
on the systems with findcmykcustomcolor, etc.
