I suspect it's more to do with that `-27' which shows the number of
local Debian/Ubuntu adjustments made to the upstream vanilla package.
One of the patches punts the work to gs(1) and indeed I see
$ strace -fe execve psmerge z.ps z.ps >/dev/null
execve("/usr/bin/psmerge", ["psmerge", "z.ps", "z.ps"], [/* 58 vars */]) = 0
execve("/usr/bin/gs", ["gs", "-q", "-dNOPAUSE", "-dBATCH",
"-sDEVICE=pswrite", "-sOutputFile=/dev/stdout", "-f", "z.ps",
"z.ps"], [/* 58 vars */]) = 0
$
So just use gs directly?
Cheers, Ralph.
