Thanks.

I have found many other SVN uploads into the src/*.ps files:

- espgsMissingChar definition
- Change the default policy to 7 instead of 0, since there is no way to
   properly support policies from a Ghostscript driver and the existing
   drivers do not work properly without it.
- PostScript files that set the ManualFeed attribute didn't work
   (STR #1570)
- Ghostscript error messages now start with CUPS prefix strings
   (ERROR: or CRIT:, as appropriate)
- Updated the setpagedevice support to allow Duplex, ManualFeed,
   and Tumble attributes to be set, even if the underlying driver
   does not implement them (STR #1598)
- CJKV support will be available as default
- CJK font handling fix (STR #1639)
- Fix Duplex, Tumble, and ManualFeed attribute handling
- Changed the default substitution glyph back to .notdef since
   space is not always present (STR #2163)

Are these all also relevant for GPL GhostScript? Can they all safely be 
added without breaking anything?
