Hi,
I see the point ... I will investigate before release (finally) a new GNU
GPL V3 version of ghostscript.
Thanks.

Bug 7 can be resolved by the attached patch (backported from Upstream revision
11352).
Bug 8 can be resolved by making "SEARCH_HERE_FIRST=0" the default (this is an option
to make (upstream)".
Bug 9 can be resolved by cherrypicking commit 11351 from upstream.
Please note that there are discussions making -dSAFER the default or not. No
solution for this available. If you decide to make -dSAFER the default, can you
send me the patch you needed for making that?
Thanks
