Well, with a few quick and dirty hacks, it seems to build on
MPE/iX... However, I have zero experience with it, so cannot
get far beyond running gs -v and gs -h without help...

Okay, there is lots of help files included in the package,
but it's really lots of material, so some guidance would be
welcome. I can run a few tests on my 3000 or else share the
binaries with whoever would like to try them.

By the way, to the ghostscript build wanted me to also build
zlib, libjpeg and libpng on MPE/iX -- using graphics libraries
on MPE is not what I'd consider typical HP 3000 usage ;-) :)

Regards, Lars.
