FYI:

the patch below was reported on suse-linux-ja ML.
I tried it (directly patching ps files), and seems working with
article9.ps.  Nice to have it on SL10.0b2.

Hi Mike,

the patch below is a fix for vertical rendering japanese letter, also
for the ps file generated from acrobat PDF.  The topic was reported on
suse-linux-ja ML.

The original patch was taken from 
	http://www.gssm.otsuka.tsukuba.ac.jp/staff/ohki/gs851-patch-mine
for GS 8.51 and I modified and clean up it to adapt to our gs package.
The patch replaces the old gs850-vfont-patch.

article9.ps and vchar*.ps are shown correctly, at least.

Please review and test for inclusion to our package.
(Maybe there will be a bugreport later, as I asked on suse-linux-ja
 ML.)
