Changes (by azaozz):

 * milestone:  5.4 => 5.5


Comment:

 Looking at 48853.1.diff again, it may be better to deprecate `pdf_setup()`
 function in favor of `pdf_load_source()`. The latter does the "setup" and
 then tries to load the source.

 In 48853.2.diff: deprecate `pdf_setup()` and introduce
 `pdf_load_source()`. The latter does the "setup" and then tries to load
 the source. If it fails, it tries to run `gs` without the `use-cropbox`
 option. It also uses a nested try/catch as it tests for several possible
 failures.

 I still couldn't reproduce this, having troubles installing (compatible)
 ImageMagic and GNU Ghostscript 8.7. Also seems it's too late to add this
 in 5.4, moving to the next milestone.
