Today I unfortunately did a "fink update-all", which updated ghostscript to 

 i      ghostscript     8.71-2  Interpreter for PostScript and PDF

which has a serious bug, which is fixed by this proposed patch by Jens Nöckel 
(derived from a patch by the ghostscript authors that has already been applied 
to Ubuntu's package)

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=414256&aid=3052027&group_id=17203

over a month ago, but it appears that this patch has not yet been applied.  (I 
had decided not to do "fink update-all" but then forgot and blew it.)

So I'm curious, how can I influence Martin Costabel (to whom the bug is now 
assigned) to apply the patch?  Or perhaps he's not the right person, I'm not 
really sure how the fink process works ...
