 Hmm... it's not very UNIX-y, but you might try opening it up in a
 graphical PS editor and "printing" to a file, specifying black-and-white
 or greyscale.

tried, but neither gv nor acrobat provide that option.

On Windows or Mac what I would do is change the PPD for the printer driver to be a B&W printer (Apple Laserwriter IINT, for example) and then print to that (a process called "refrying the PS").
