Hi,
Good news and bad news and good news.
The good news is that I am able to reproduce this problem.
The bad news is that the compiled rpm's from the vendor do not have this
problem, so I can't blame it on them.
The good news is that since it is our problem I can fix it.
So ... now I'm not just looking at it ... I'm working on it.

So the package puts the files in /usr/share/ghostscript/7.05/
but the apps look in /usr/share/fonts/default/... and
/var/tmp/ghostscript-7.05-root/usr/share/ghostscript/7.05/lib
I'd look at a patch myself but it is the end of a long week and I have
a family event this evening.
