Oh dear. 'Thanks' for breaking the news.

It feels like it shouldn't work (what with the different .so
version & all) but I've been unable to break a ghostscript grafted
to use 2.10.4.
I'm currently reconfiguring my system with it; if it works, I'll
push it.
Whatever happens, I won't have time to apply the core-updates half
tonight.

I don't know enough about FT/GS's internals to really understand
what's going on, but being a C(ompile-time) macro, this *could* be
safe to graft, right?
Kind regards,
