I've uploaded all of the above to sourceware.org after giving them a very perfunctory inspection. I edited the setup.hint files. The '@ ghostscript' line is an artifact and should not be used. And, the prev, curr tags should only be used when the version sorting is not obvious. I think that ghostscript is non-core enough that we can get by with having a few bugs in packaging if you are willing to monitor the cygwin mailing list and respond to bugs. Thanks for doing this. I appreciate your taking over as maintainer. I can't believe that it has been more than two years since the last release. cgf
