That's the printer. Its name is lp. The problem was that apsfilter
launches gs to print PS on a non-PS printer. After turning on some
verbose logging in apsfilter itself, I saw that gs would not load.
ld.so complained about libXt.so.6.0, which a) exists and b) loads
happily when I run the same gs with the same options from the good
old command line. This problem only shows up with the ghostscript
port, which I accidentally installed instead of ghostscript5. With
2.6.2 removed and 5.10 installed, it works fine again.


Also, -r-xr-xr-x  1 bin  bin  2416 May  5 20:27 /usr/bin/lp*
