Postscript Graphics in Header - Mathematica 5.0

Hello everybody,

With Mathematica 4.1, I used PageHeaders to insert the logo of my company into
my document printouts. I placed the logo as Postscript in an appropriate
cell, like this:

g = Graphics[{{RGBColor[0, 0, 1], Rectangle[{0, 0}, {0.9, 0.9}]}, 
    RGBColor[1, 0, 0], Rectangle[{0.5, 0.5}, {1, 1}]}, ImageSize -> 72];

f = DisplayString[g]; 

SetOptions[EvaluationNotebook[], PageHeaders -> 
   {{None, Cell[GraphicsData["PostScript", f], "Graphics"], None}, 
    {None, Cell[GraphicsData["PostScript", f], "Graphics"], None}}]

After Upgrading to Mathematica 5.0, this no longer works: Mathematica is
crashing with an "unknown software exception" when I try to print the
notebook. I'm using Mathematica 5.0 under Windows XP(German).

Does anybody has a clue why this happens?
Can anybody reproduce this bug?

Thanks a lot,

        Peter
