some code improvements as suggested by Coverity. See current Coverity status here: https://scan.coverity.com/projects/498
removed the -DBUGGYGPP compile flag since now g++ can compile the code without it. The former work-arounds are still there but will be removed later.
enabled more warnings when compiling with g++ and fixed some resulting warnings.
changed the autoconf part to better support the inclusion of libzip for the pptx driver.
included a lot of documentation corrections contributed by Peter Dyballa. Many thanks!
using non case sensitive comparison when determining the target format from the file suffix.
using more STL classes instead of older private replacements (string and vector). In this context also some hard coded limits were removed.
fixed an assertion violation when using -ssp and a closepath occurred.
added the dump of the font name for the DXF format.
prototype of a "simulate fill" option for emulating filling by stroking. This is based on fillpoly.c from the hp2xx project. Thanks also to Gary Langthorne for pointing out this option. This is still kind of experimental.

Otherwise, existing SHA1 digests verified and found to be the same on
the machine holding the existing distfiles (morden). All existing
SHA1 digests retained for now as an audit trail.
fixed a bug in handling of -page option.
fixed a bug in detecting rectangles.
fixed a bug in passing generic libplot arguments to the libplot drivers.
improved handling of composite fonts, especially those having FMapType
other than 2.
improved bounding box tracing in case of text.
improved support for 64-bit systems related to different version of
ghostscript, and integration of pstoedit to gsview.
changed the creation of filenames when using the -split option.
Related to that there is new option -pagenumberformat.
added some features for the LaOS project (http://www.laoslaser.org/)
new backend generating PowerPoint pptx files.
to address issues with NetBSD-6(and earlier)'s fontconfig not being
new enough for pango.
While doing that, also bump freetype2 dependency to current pkgsrc
version.

added an option (-pslanguagelevel) for easy switching the language level to be used by GhostScript during interpretation of the PostScript/PDF file.
new driver for the "Context Free" drawing tool (http://www.contextfreeart.org/ ) contributed by Scott Pakin.
fixed the windows binary version - some drivers were missing.
fixed some problems in handling composite fonts (FontType = 0)

support for 64 bit windows and Office 2010
