I have tried (via yum-replace-plugin) swapping gnu-ghostscript for latest ghostscript, and the error is consistent with either one.

It is also apparently not possible to run gs.exe from an OS/2 shell; instead this must be done from dash (or a compatible *nix shell). The shell reported in the error log is bash, so I doubt this is an issue.
