It seems to have been fixed by one of the recent Panther updates
(everything works fine here on 10.3.4 and 10.3.5).

The bugs in Apple's PDF rendering code are still not fixed, though
(for example, Preview.app doesn't support '/ShadingType 4', which means
that you need to use Acrobat or ghostscript to view/print the files).
