g++ has been a requirement for ghostscript build for at least 3 years (probably
since jasper was added -- I didn't check). I recall tripping over this and
Ralph told me to add g++.

Documenting this should be adequate (until we dump jasper in favor of
openjpeg).

Linux distros that package up ghostscript 'dev' packages can make sure of the
dependencies -- we don't do the packages. Can't we just add a comment to
doc/Make.htm (that probably nobody reads anyway) and close this bug ?
