Uh, don't you have somebody who *is* enough of a C hacker? I mean,
I have a hard time imagining somebody getting a Cray and not being
a C hacker or hiring one.

Ghostscript apparently works on other 64-bit architectures (at least
the DEC Alpha), so, even if it doesn't work out of the box, it
shouldn't be much work for a Cray sysop.

Of course, if you wanted to give me an account on the machine, I
suppose you might be able to persuade me to try to figure out what's
going on....Not that my C is all that hot, but it'd certainly be
worth a try....
