Ghostscript ignores -dDownScaleFactor?

It seems like Ghostscript is ignoring the -dDownScaleFactor argument. Running the example both with and without -dDownScaleFactor produces identical files:

$ gs --version
9.00
$ gs -sDEVICE=png16m -r600 -dDownScaleFactor=3 -o with-downscale.png input.pdf
…
$ gs -sDEVICE=png16m -r600 -o without-downscale.png input.pdf
…
$ md5 *.png
MD5 (with-downscale.png) = 5480f478ce3486c3fb104c82c4cbd370
MD5 (without-downscale.png) = 5480f478ce3486c3fb104c82c4cbd370

What's going on here?

The png16m device did not support -dDownScaleFactor in ghostscript 9.00. Try updating to 9.10.
