Hi Nikola, That is strange. It works for me on Fedora 25 with its gs 9.20 and with gs 9.21 that I built from source.
gs without -dShowAcroForm shows the template, and gs with -dShowAcroForm shows the data in the form, or is there even more data that -dShowAcroForm does not show? gs ps2pdf flattens the form, so if you detect a PDF with XFA, you can pass it through ps2pdf, and then view the result with poppler-based tools.
