This version of ghostscript seems to be incompatible with xdvi (on 
cygwin).  eps graphics don't display, and I get the error message

    xdvik: read_from_gs: Connection reset by peer

I've checked on the texlive mailing list, and people are successfully 
using ghostscript 8.63 with xdvi on other systems, so this seems to be 
cygwin specific.  Do you have any idea what the problem could be?  I can 
use ghostscript 8.62 without a problem.

Ken
