Hi,
# I forgot Cc: to cyg-apps.

Thank you for maintaining gs packages.
I have one request.

Under the current setting of /FontResourceDir and /GenericResourceDir in
/usr/share/ghostscript/7.05/lib/gs_res.ps, we have to make "Resource"
directory at the root directory. This is not elegant, I think. And this
gs is built with "COMPILE_INITS=1", so the modification to gs_res.ps is
needed before building. Yes, building with "COMPILE_INITS=1" is good for
performance. I attached the patch for gs_res.ps in the source tree.
This modification has already applied in RedHat-8.0.

Regards,
