I'm sponsoring this fasttrack on behalf of Sonam Gupta. The case seeks minor
binding and times out
on 08/05/2009.
The case delivers the libgs.so shared library and Ghostscript header files as a
part of
the upgrade to Ghostscript 8.64. Manpages associated with the case have been
previously delivered.
I don't believe updated contracts for PSARC/2002/619 are needed since the
interfaces described
haven't changed, but will be pursued if needed.
