solve my problems with ghostscript at least from 2005;
from  8.62, gs has some problems with fonts and rotate last page 90
clockwise
or counter clockwise with some pdf .
gs 8.63 works only with
\pdfobjcompresslevel=0
(I mean, same problems of gs 8.62.)

Not only with pdf, even in compilation.
Starting from 8.62
I 'm not able to build libgs from source tree because there are some
binaries that do not compile.
I must compile  ghostpdl, take these intermediary binaries  (echogs, I
believe, and some others)
put them into ghostscript tree and recompile.

Funny, after all.
