I got part way through building a slave port, then realised that it
would be much simpler just to teach the main port about the NO_X
variable.
We could still create a slave port that did nothing more than make sure
that NO_X was set first. The attached Makefile (untested) in
print/ghostscript6-nox11, plus the patches I've just sent round, should
do the job.
