It is simply amazing that this bug is still present in 12.10!

Anyways the following workaround wors form me:
1) get auctex from 
http://theotp1.physik.uni-ulm.de/~ste/comp/emacs/auctex/snapshots/ftp/
2) ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --with-emacs=/usr/bin/emacs24-x  && make && 
make install
3) add to /etc/emacs/site-start.el
(load "auctex.el" nil t t)
(load "preview-latex.el" nil t t)

  preview latex fails with pdflatex

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: auctex

  Preview latex does not work on the attached minimum example when using pdf 
latex mode in the latest version of lucid it works correctly in karmic and in 
ordinary latex mode on lucid. It also fails using the latest version of auctex 
from the main auctex page (11.86)
  The preview pdf files are generated and converted to dsc however the ghost 
script conversion to png does not work. 

  Please see the following error logs. The error seems to be Error: /typecheck 
in --setfileposition-- from gs. 
  When using preview section this is replaced by Error: /undefined in 
copy_trailer_attrs and it still doesn't work. 
  This might be related to the following debian bug fixed by 8.71~dfsg-2 in 
debian:
