 So far, I've observed this failure only on (semi-)diskless amd64 systems
 (netbsd-7 and -current).  That is, they have local disk for swap, "/tmp"
 and to hold ${WRKOBJDIR}, but are otherwise operating entirely over NFS.
 The same machines, building entirely to local disk (netbsd-7 only) do
 not encounter this problem.
 
 That is, "gs_init.ps" truly does not exist, but building/updating "doxygen"
 fails only in the NFS case on amd64 hosts.
 
 My likewise (semi-)diskless i386 systems do not exhibit this failure.
 
 I have not tried building this package on any other architecture so far,
 whether local disk or (semi-)diskless.
