Did you also get the 2.6.2 fonts from prep.ai.mit.edu?
Perhaps gs 2.6.2 is getting confused by the 3.53 version you had.
Maybe it's time to remove all the ghostscript stuff
(rm -r /usr/local/lib/ghostscript) and reload the gs binary from ftp.sgi.com
the ghostscript fonts from prep.ai.mit.edu and the hylafax binary
(there are some important fonts in there too).
