Thanks for the update. It does in fact build out of the box now. I ran the
released 2.0b3 installer to get the fonts and lib files, and then tried it
with the 6.50 mac-gs shlib. Graphics seem to work ok, but text is
corrupt. So I'm most of the way!

CW did complain about "not being able to find" a number of files,
including a whole slew of MacOS-sounding libs and some of the powerplant
source files. Nevertheless, these same files are listed outside the
"Rescued Items" group and appear to be accessible in the build process.
What's going on here?

I'm in #ghostscript on irc.ghostscript.com (irc.openprojects.net) most of
the time I'm online, and will be there for the next couple of hours for
sure.

Thanks again,
