Maybe one of the dependencies that my options didn't pick up that yours did is broken. Or maybe you tried one of other ghostscript ports instead. Or maybe you tried it when the port was broken (that got me with openoffice - the tarball the port grabbed by default was corrupt). But ghostscript has always built on amd64 with no problems for me. http://www.mired.org/consulting.html Independent Network/Unix/Perforce consultant, email for more information.
