Thanks for the hint, Albert. In the meantime I already encountered, that 
creating the transformation with INTENT_PERCEPTUAL instead of 
INTENT_RELATIVE_COLORIMETRIC works fine with the GWG tests (This time I 
attach only one result, but the two other are also okay). Now I'd read 
the bug comments, but I did't find any intent entries in the PDF. BUT: 
as far as I understand the PDF spec, the settings in output profile 
should be used if there are no intent entries, and indeed, the profile 
pointed by the OutputIntents dictionary says:

icc:RenderingIntent               : Perceptual

Should I try fix it in that way and and attach a patch to bug 34053?

Cheers,
Thomas
