Hi Dave,

I have checked the krgb-1.1 patch against 
GPL ghostscript 8.15
that it doesn't break epsonepl like the 1.0-patch 
did; I have also tried putting the 1.1-patch 
against AFPL ghostscript 8.50, and I am afraid
some macros in src/gsmalloc.h has changed so the
1.1 patch won't compile. (basically both "gs_malloc" 
and "gs_free" takes an extra 1st argument compared 
to gs 8.15). I have fixed the compilation error of
the 1.1 patch against APFL ghostscript 8.50 
(attached). Since I am just trying to make it
to compile, the new additional first argument to those
two functions may not be correct for hpijs, so 
you should verify, but this would save you a bit 
of time for porting the patch to AFPL ghostscript 
8.50.

I would appreciate if you would cross-post to our
devel mailing list (epsonepl-devel at
lists.sourceforge.net)  
if you have a new krgb patch in the future.  

Regards,
Hin-Tak
