I'm not sure what's your point, but there is no configure so you have
to edit config.h and undef GS_PATH to disable ghostscript support.

If GS_PATH is defined xv invokes ghostscript and shows the processed
postscript image in the graphic window.
If GS_PATH is not defined xv shows postscript text in the text window.

Maybe you can ask a person who added the dependencies:
