To be honest, no. While it might be possible for this particular document, in the general case it is not possible. Also without seeing the PostScript file I certainly can't tell you how to find the extra space.

Assuming that you have created the PostScript file from some application then you should go back to the original document, remove the trailing space, and recreate the PostScritp file.

This does not appear to be a Ghostscript bug or enhancement request.

The !( ) s! is the line that renders the space.

Note that since this is PostScript, removing this won't get rid of the final page. As I said in comment #2 go back to the original document and remove the trailing space/second page definition in that document, and remake the PostScript file.
