I believe this is identical to CVE-2010-1869

They don't look identical to me.  Patches differ, upstream bugs differ.

Can't really do anything hands-on to test since the PoC attached to the
upstream bug is private.

I don't think this ever got a CVE:

A memory corruption vulnerability in Ghostscript 8.64 and earlier caused
by long names can lead to arbitrary code execution.
