I filed my bug report and patch:

On Malone.
Via email to the guy listed in Malone.  (dead address)
To Debian.
To an address listed somewhere on Gnu.org as being for bugs in enscript.

NOBODY has ever replied, anywhere, in any way, to even acknowledge that
a human being has seen this bug.  I have to make the decision do I
eschew enscript, or do I just resign myself that I'll need to patch it
myself everywhere I intend to use it?
