>Description:
It's time to use a new version of ghostscript (GS 5.50).  This port 
includes newer japanese printer driver, such as epag-3.07 and gdevlips-2.0.0.

However, the port has one disadvantage; Japanese PDF is not yet supported.
An older version of ja-vfgs port (japanese/vfghostscript5) must be retained 
during development of Japanese PDF support.
Since there are already many guys waiting for newer gs and printer driver,
It's worth committing this new port.

>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
0. Take a look to PR ports/9097
1. Make a repository copy from japanese/vfghostscript5 to japanese/vfghostscriptt55
2. Apply a patch http://www.jp.FreeBSD.org/~mita/ghostscript/ja-vfghostscript55.diff.gz
