I re-compiled ghostscript 2.4.1 with x11 as the only output device.
When I ran it, it showed "Initializing ... Floating exception".
I did see a blank window showed up for a couple of seconds.
Did I forget to do something?  I run 386bsd/Xfree86 on a 386AT
without 387.  The 386bsd kernel is the kernel came with Xfree86.
Any help is appreiciated.
