>Description:
In CJK etc environment, the user needs to add some set of fonts
to ghostscript to properly display two bytes character.

Adobe proposed CID Font, (Character IDentifier font) for such 
situation.  The recent practice is to add 'cidfmap' file mapping the
fontset name in PostScript to the OS environment character set,
or aliase settings.

The recent (8.56 or later) version of Ghostscript has the facility to
embed initialization Postscripts loading in its binary (This will be
found as macro COMILE_INIT in Makefile).

  This COMPILE_INIT makes startup faster, but to get the
initialization as described above, we need to disable this
function.  Ref:
   http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/doc/GPL/gpl856.htm

The configure parameter --disable-compile-inits is to be added 
optionally in pkgsrc environment.  I have the option for this.
The name is disable-compile-inits.

This option is not included in PKG_SUGGESTED_OPTIONS, so this
patch does not affect any behavior of the existing package
of ghostscript.

To see this configuration is enabled or not, 'gs -h' will give you
the status.

Following is no --disable-compile-inits case. (Existing package): 

| Search path:
+    . : %rom%Resource/Init/ : %rom%lib/ :
|    /usr/pkg/share/ghostscript/8.71/Resource/Init :
|    /usr/pkg/share/ghostscript/8.71/lib :
|    /usr/pkg/share/ghostscript/8.71/Resource/Font :
|    /usr/pkg/share/ghostscript/fonts :
|    /usr/pkg/share/fonts/default/ghostscript :
|    /usr/pkg/share/fonts/default/Type1 :
|    /usr/pkg/share/fonts/default/TrueType : /usr/lib/DPS/outline/base :
|    /usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/Type1 : /usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType
+ Initialization files are compiled into the executable.

Two lines marked '+' will disappear if --disable-compile-inits configured.
I have discussed the necessity of this configuration in tech-pkg-ja@
starting of the mail dated: ( in Japanese, sorry).
