I've copied the patch from [1], applied it to the Debian source package, 
rebuilt the package and copied the pdftex binary to /home.. The patch 
applied cleanly, but the resulting binary did not solve the issue. The 
pdftex can create the pdf file, but after converting to a text file 
using gs / pdftotext the issue is not solved.

I've copied my binary to /var/tmp/pdftex_hille42_20231027 on that box, 
could you test it or provide your pdftex executable? The file was not 
created on that server, but on a Debian box, but this should not matter.
