My guess is that if you generate and test a patch, Christophe would be happy to 
apply it.

The LIB_SUFFIX change made me wonder if gl2ps is now available via the various 
package managers.  I checked Fink and MacPorts on MacOSX.  It is not yet 
available for Fink (although that should be easy to do).  It is available from 
MacPorts.  I did a quick Google, it appears to be available for Debian.  Might 
we soon want to unbundle gl2ps and make it a dependency?
