I was in a rush last night when I sent that e-mail. I wanted to add that the file, when ftp'd to my MacBook (10.5.4), open just fine Preview and all the pages were readable.

55 completely blank pages

well, thanks very much, Tim.  You and Phil Ost tested, and I found out that our
FreeBSD-ports installed gs seems to have some sickness, when being asked to
display PS files that don't have embedded fonts ... because that's what this is.
 I'll be investigating it further.  I  have already verified that at least some
of the Linux-derived gs ports display this fine, so it's a ports problem of some
kind, because of the testing, and I know my gs and gs fonts are installed the
way they should be.

Great, it's attached, I really appreciate this.

My problem is, on doc files from the Xorg project, *.PS.gz files (and
not all of
these, only the ones deriving directly from Framework .mif files) gv
displays
blank pages, and ps2pdf is converting to blank pages on pdfs.  If you
have a
moment to do it, and would write me, I'd mail you one of these files,
and see if
you can view them yourself.  If you can, I need to look harder.  If
you can't,
then maybe we all need to (because one of the Xorg folks just told me
they can
read them fine using gv).  I need some independent verification.
