It seems that the issue partly comes from pdflatex: On an old
file for which ps2pdf was correct with ghostscript 9.53.3~dfsg-4,
it is now incorrect still with ghostscript 9.53.3~dfsg-4. But if
I regenerate the intermediate PDF file on an old Debian machine
and transfer it to my current machine, ps2pdf is correct with
ghostscript 9.53.3~dfsg-4 and with ghostscript 9.53.3~dfsg-7
(stable), and also with ghostscript 9.54.0~dfsg-5.
