When GV detects that the document is either a PDF file or a
GZip compressed file, it executes some commands with the help of the

possible to distribute a file (with a meticulously chosen filename,
that even seems innocent) that causes execution of arbitrary
shell commands when it is read with GV.

And:
- prepare for gs 7.00, detect the version of ghostscript installed,
and tweak resource files to use x11 device with aa options instead
of the older x11alpha. Mark resource files as no checksum accordingly.
