Not sure about this. The svn server we use is quite old, so there may be 
some inefficiency there. And svn merge in general isn't very smart.

The missing gomni.c, and a property on gdevwts.c that handn't been 
merged up from trunk were the only differences I saw. I've also done
some additional cleanup; please let us know if you run into problems on 
the CUPS side from any new commits.

You should be able to start packaging from HEAD now, and delete the 
gs-esp-gpl-merger branch and your convenience.

Thanks again!
