Fixed! I had to configure ghostscript-9.05 with --with-install-cups . This installs the gstoraster filter program and the gstoraster.convs configuration file that tells CUPS how to convert PostScript to raster (I should have said that I don't have a PostScript printer.) Ghostscript-8x didn't need this parameter. Perhaps this is worth mentioning on the BLFS Ghostscript page? Thanks to everyone who took time to look into this.
