ghostscript @9.21_0+x11 not linking properly

[Bill Christensen]

Thanks for the info.

I'm seeing some possibly unrelated problems on one of my servers 
(10.9.5, but no prob on 10.12.x) as of Monday's updates.  I'm in process 
of moving sites off 10.9.5, so maybe this will just speed me up.

This causes clips upgrade to fail (because it wants to use ps2pdf on a couple of its documentation files).  It also seems to cause a problem with ImageMagick, as reported by the check of binaries for linking errors.
