[pdftex] What is wrong with this PDF file?

When I run pdflatex on the following document

\documentclass{minimal}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\pagestyle{empty}
\begin{document}
  \includegraphics{ex0}
\end{document}

I get this result:

; pdflatex try0
This is pdfTeX, Version 3.14159-1.00a-pretest-20011114-ojmw (Web2C 7.3.7)
(./try0.tex{/store/share/texmf/pdftex/config/pdftex.cfg}
LaTeX2e <2001/06/01>
[... snip ...]
) <ex0.pdf, id=1, 60.225pt x 40.15pt> <use ex0.pdf> [1 <./ex0.pdf
Error: pdflatex (file ./ex0.pdf): pdf inclusion: invalid font dict type <null>

The tiny PDF file ex0.pdf appears fine when I view it with acroread or
gv.  Maybe something is wrong with it, but it seems to me more likely
there is a pdftex bug lurking here.  Anybody got an idea?

ex0.pdf is attached.  It was created using cl-pdf, see
<http://www.fractalconcept.com/asp/html/cl-pdf.html> if you're
interested.
