Merge different downstream forks of fonts upstream. The fonts shipped with
gsfonts in GNU/Linux distributions like Ubuntu and Debian have different
implementations than the fonts shipped with texlive.

Apparently the ones shipped with texlive are the original/upstream ones (version
1.05) and the ones shipped in GNU/Linux gsfonts support more languages (extra
glyphs, version 1.06) but do that in pfb font files with other files names than
the one provided upstream. The font names inside the files are identical,
however the unque id is not.

For more information, read this entire threat:
  http://tug.org/pipermail/tex-live/2009-May/020931.html
Please copy any relevant details from that threat in this issue.

This is an highly undesirable situation, mainly for users that have both texlive
on a GNU/Linux system that has gsfonts. If effort is going to be made to solve
this, please direct it towards one updated upstream font archive to be used by
all downstream. When both ship identical sets of fonts, this is easier to detect
and maintain the fonts, in stead of the current ambiguous different sets of
fonts with font name conflicts.

I understand that Ghostscript is not responsible that this situation has
occurred, but like to request to take the lead in the upstream merging process.
