1-page PDF with CropBox different from MediaBox

Attached is a 1-page PDF which uses...

 ... a media box of 667x950 pt, accompanied by 
 ... a crop  box of 595x842 pt (no bleed-, trim- or art box specified).

Yet pdfinfo reports as "page size" a value of 595x842 pt (when it should be
667x950 pt, or not?)

The value pdfinfo calculates here is the width and height of the trim box, not
the page size....

Editing the PDF's *trim* box values to [667 950] yields the correct *page*
size:
