Comment:

 Punting until lcms2-2.5 is released (there is now a first release
 candidate, so a release is in prospect).
 This version of ghostscript won't build against lcms-2.4, although there
 are patches around for lcms2.

 Turns out I've been building against the shipped version of lcms2.

 Notes for whoever picks this up:
 1. the included tiff is now in the libtiff/ directory
 2. Adding LIBS=-lz seems unnecessary to me (unless it was for system
 lcms2?)
 3. jasper is no longer included, nor required
 4. gtk+-3 will be used in preference to gtk+-2, if it is present.
 5. lcms2 is used in preference to lcms1 - no need to delete shipped lcms/
 but user would need to specify lcms1 if they wished to build against it. I
 guess we can drop lcms1 from the deps.
