If I follow your build steps (I'll assume you edit msvc.mak to set
COMPILE_INITS=0), and install to the path: "c:\usr\gs\gs9.28" (from
your earlier mail), trying to run the executable just results in:
"GPL Ghostscript RELEASE CANDIDATE 1 9.28: Can't find initialization
file gs_init.ps."

So, are you setting an environment variable, or a registry key, or a
commend line parameter, so Ghostscript can find it's initialisation
files?
