Hello,
I have recently build a basic version of cups and cups-filters for that
same architecture, but I did not use ghostscript for this. If the target
printers are no postscript printers and you are not required to handle
genuine postscript files, you might be easier off without ghostscript.
If cups can not find the gstoraster program, it can try other routes to
produce the output. I have installed poppler for this.

My cups install target uses :
CUPS_INSTALL_OPT := \
install DSTROOT=$(CUPS_PKGDIR)
