Apparently, it is to shut up the XEmacs byte-compiler.  Luckily it seems
that (defvar mark-active) works as well (but in any case the efforts to shut
up the byte-compiler that were put into ps-print.el don't seem worth it:
there's still a whole bunch of warnings).

I've fixed it, along with a few other complaints.
