A Postscript program I have puts the following in the "proc"
part of imagemasks -  

8 string 

with the intent of reading a bunch of zeros. This works on a Laserwriter,
but not on the Goscript I have. Is it legal to give imagemask a
string, that when read many times, doesn't have exactly the number of
bytes needed? I suspect a bug in the Goscript imagemask operator,
but just want to check.
