Now I'm even more confused.  How does one "render within Emacs with
Ghostscript"?  Emacs display rendering uses our display engine, which
doesn't need Ghostscript, and AFAIK cannot use it.  I guess I'm
misunderstanding something very basic here...
The screenshots linked in OP shows split windows - one with original text and another with PS file. The PS file section is actually a PNG image generated with Ghostscript from the PS file. The PS file itself is generated by my code.
