If I understand well, pstopdf uses ghostscript .
"luafication" will use ghostscript again ?

sure, what else ... actually, pstopdf started out as some perl script long
ago (when we started using pdftex) and we needed it not only in order to
convert to pdf, but also to clean up some mess in eps files that interfered
with the process


So what about a lua wrapper of libgs.so libgs.dll ?
code should be not complicated

because it adds another dependency (dll/lib mess) while using the gs program is not much slower anyway
