[XeTeX] PSTricks and XeTeX

Hello

I've just installed TeXLive 2009 (web download) on a new computer running Windows XP Pro, and find that PSTricks isn't working (it's OK in TeXLive 2008).  Is there some setting that I have to adjust manually?  I forget whether I needed to do anything special in the 2008 installation (though I seem to recall that PSTricks support was only just getting off the ground and some manual updates were required).

Here is what I get after a simple test (setting a bit of text at an angle and drawing a basic ellipse):

GPL Ghostscript 8.70: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1

Can anyone advise on this?



Many thanks
