[Clfs-support] Ghostscript-8.62.0

[Randolph D Dach]

Good day

I'm having trouble getting Ghostscript to compile the shared libraries using X86_64 multilib system.

the BUILD32 works but when I try to compile Ghostscript on BUILD64, the shared library make.  I get the following error

Can anyone shed some light on the problem
