We can definitely merge the ghostcript-gnu and ghostscript-afpl packages
to the latest 8.54 release.  The print/ghostscript package was originally
kept around primarily for some users in Japan IIRC, but I don't know
if it has yet been completely superseded by any of the newer ghostscript
releases.  Perhaps someone on the tech-pkg-ja@jp.NetBSD.org mailing
list can let us know if it can be removed (I've cc:ed the list on this
reply)?  In that case, we can drop print/ghostscript altogether.

I would prefer not to merge ghostcript-gnu and ghostscript-esp until
it's clear that the all of the ESP features have been merged back into
the GNU ghostscript sources.
