I removed it using the Slack utility pkgtool. After some fussing around with permissions and a reboot I got Gimp 2.0.0 to compile, run, and read and write Postscript files. I tested it under root and under my usual user name.
I still haven't got the glitches out of my primary partition, so when I need to use 2.0 I will just boot the other partition. There are some files hidden somewhere that I can't find that are preventing a usable product. I'll just wait until the next partition swap time and install 2.0 from scratch.
