Dave, I had that same problem when I tried to use system-ghostscript from unstable together with Gerben Wierda's tetex distribution. If you are in this same situation the problem is that the present version of system-ghostscript is not working with Gerben's tetex. The maintainer of system-ghostscript is aware of the problem. A solution for the time being is to remove system-ghostscript and install fink's ghostscript and ghostscript-fonts packages. It is not ideal to have two versions of ghostscript installed, but I have experienced no conflicts and all the fink packages depending on ghostscript, including gv, are working fine.
