When importing images (gif, png, eps etc) while ghostscript-8.0 is 
installed, TeXmacs hangs. It does this once when the image file is 
selected in the file selection window and then once again when the OK 
button is pressed. "Hangs" means it doesn't react to any input.

The only way to continue is to run TeXmacs from the command line and 
then when it hangs to type a "Ctrl-C" on this same command line. After 
the second Ctrl-C, TeXmacs then continues normally.

This behavior is observed with ghostscript-8.0 on MacOSX, not with 
ghostscript-7.04 nor with ghostscript-6.01. Other people are seeing 
this, too. When I write a small C program that issues the exact same gs 
command line as TeXmacs does, I do not see any difference in the 
behavior of the different gs versions.

Any ideas where this could come from and how to debug it?
