Hm, recently there have been some reports where problems were confined
to PDF output only.  The fact that you get the "no entry" signs with DVI
output as well seems to suggest that this is a different one.

If you click with mouse-2 on one of those signs, what's the output you
get?

Yes, Ghostscript is also on my shortlist of culprits.  The Debian
maintainer is in course of packaging the new version, so hopefully I'll
be able to test with it in the near future without having to install it
manually.
