Issue 1 (trivial):
in the ebuild if djvu use flag is set in src_compile one of the sed lines
reports as unterminated cause there's a line break in it (it's the second line)

Issue 2 (not trivial):
one of the dependencies is
jpeg2k? ( media-libs/jasper )
however ghostscript does NOT use it:
its configure.ac prefers building local (static) version from the tree.
Unfortunately, ghostscript authors have modified their copy of jasper sources
in a way that makes it incompatible with upstream jasper, so at this time it
not possible to use upstream jasper for ghostscript.

I wonder if it's the same with zlib, ghostscript prefers local copy too,
haven't checked if it's compatible.

Thanks for reporting, this is fixed in app-text/ghostscript-gpl-8.61-r2, for
the remaining zlib see bug #206893.
