I installed gs-aladdin 4.03-7 and downloaded 5.03 sources from the net.
The stcolor.ps file is dentical, so I presume the driver is the same
(so in this particular case I was wrong about complaining about hamm
being libc6!  But the philosophy still aplies :-)

I'm currently using a postscript filter like so:

/usr/bin/gs  -q -dSAFER -dNOPAUSE -r720x720 -sDEVICE=stcolor -sOutputFile=- stcolor.ps -

If anyone has better tweaks, please let me know.
