Well, the ghostscript-fonts might be *extra* fonts, but they are only being
used by ​'hylafax+' package ATM. Ghostscript is *NOT* using these fonts
anymore. They are many years old (and outdated). These fonts are completely
irrelevant and obsoleted nowadays.

The Fontmap.GS you have shared actually uses fonts from urw-base35-fonts
package, not ghostscript-fonts. You would see the names mapping there if
you look closely.

I'm ACKing this request as the maintainer of ghostscript and
urw-base35-fonts.
