The only problem is that curently even with -P- or SEARCH_HERE_FIRST=0
at build time the gs_init.ps in the current working directory will
be opened by gs first:

 /suse/werner> strace -o log -e open gs -P-

 GS>quit
 /suse/werner> grep gs_init.ps log
 open("gs_init.ps", O_RDONLY)            = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
 open("/etc/ghostscript/8.70/gs_init.ps", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file
or directory)
 open("/usr/share/ghostscript/Resource/gs_init.ps", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No
such file or directory)
 open("/usr/share/ghostscript/8.70/Resource/Init/gs_init.ps", O_RDONLY) = 3
 /suse/werner> 

(the binary uses both the option -P- and was compiled with SEARCH_HERE_FIRST=0)
This looks like that the default for `i_ctx_p == NULL' should not be
true but `false'
