Re: gs prints garbage despite of giving "-q" or "-dQUIET" option

[Alex]

PLRM says that error "==" and similar operators write to stdout.
Many users have complained about it and this problem will be
fixed in GS 7.0 due in April. It will be re-released under GPL
approximately 1 year later.

For now you can just redefine print operators as pop.
