How can I search for failed Ghostscript builds? Could you please tell me
the machine.

The error here is that we do use `make` instead of `oe_runmake` and
therefore the environment variables are not set correctly.

I tried building Ghostscript 8.64 which failed because
`libfontconfig.so.1` cannot be found. I would propose to first fix 8.64
and then apply those changes to 9.01.

Hopefully Graham will have time to reply or, if you and Graham are on
IRC, you could try to ask him there.
