This occurs on some GNU/Linux systems. You'll need to change the

These warnings:

`__objc_class_name_NSConstantString' are not defined

GNU contracted with Aladdin software to add some key features to

ghostscript so it could be used as a DPS server. This work has mostly

been done, althought Aladdin did not completely finish the work that

they were contracted for. DGS works fairly well with a single context
