I downgraded to the Quantal 9.06 edition. Due to dependency issues, a number of packages have to be downloaded (e.g. from http://packages.ubuntu.com/quantal/ghostscript) and replaced:
sudo dpkg -i ghostscript_9.06~dfsg-0ubuntu4_amd64.deb ghostscript-x_9.06~dfsg-0ubuntu4_amd64.deb libgs9_9.06~dfsg-0ubuntu4_amd64.deb libgs9-common_9.06~dfsg-0ubuntu4_all.deb
Prevent ghostscript from getting upgraded immediately with
sudo aptitude hold ghostscript_9.06~dfsg-0ubuntu4_amd64.deb ghostscript-x_9.06~dfsg-0ubuntu4_amd64.deb libgs9_9.06~dfsg-0ubuntu4_amd64.deb libgs9-common_9.06~dfsg-0ubuntu4_all.deb
The downgrade doesn't seem to affect programs depending on ghostscript like LaTeX or lilypond.
