Is there a way to be able to compile the 9.07 in different directories so that I do not destroy 8.70 or the libraries.
Of course. You can simply compile the tarball or the rpm, assuming that your system has all of the required dependencies (or that you can install them).
You could start with Ghostscript from Fedora 19, it has 9.07
source rpm : http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/3/srodzaj/2/search/ghostscript-9.07-3.f...
i686 version: http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/21816498/dir/fedora_19/com/ghost...
x86_64 version: http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/21816499/dir/fedora_19/com/ghost...
First try installing compiled rpm on a TEST system, and if that does not work you can try recompiling the source rpm, or ask someone to help you, maybe maintainer of ghostscript in Fedora.
