print/gv's installed /usr/local/share/gv/gv_system.ad expects a pswrite
device, but print/ghostscript9-agpl-base and print/ghostscript9-agpl-x11
(one of the these satisfies print/gv's USES requirement by default)
provide only ps2write (at least that is my interpretation).

I've generated a patch to correct the issue (it also fixes up some=20
minor "porters" conventional things such as filename(s) in files/)
but I'm unclear how the system can be clear that it is ghostscript9
installed instead of ghostscript8, or 7.  As such I'm concerned my
patch is insufficient.

While I comfortable with build systems and programming, this is my first
foray into freebsd packages and patch generating, so any guidance would
be appreciated.

TiA,

Sleep is highly overrated.  Mostly by excessively productive people.
