Cool. Glad you got it working.
Ghostscript 7.07 is the latest GPL'ed version, while gs 8.14 is the latest version released under the AFPL (Aladdin free public license). AFPL has some restrictions affecting commercial use. The people who maintain ghostscript follow this dual-license strategy so that they can make a little money from their commercial users.
Ghostscript's GPL version is 8.01-2 in sid. I don't know whether it will have the same problems as gs-afpl 8.14, but you can bet it will propagate to testing relatively soon.
