I tried gs to view a pdf document, but found it failed.

Upon a little investigating it was gs that was failing.

The reason given (with verbose flas set was)
--------------------------------
GPL Ghostscript 8.63: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1
   **** Error reading a content stream. The page may be incomplete.
   **** Incorrect object count in object stream.
Error: /rangecheck in resolveobjectstream
--------------------------------

I tried this on what seem to be valid pdf files and viewable with Samatra, the open source viewer for MS-Windows.

Is this a problem due to upgrading the system and gv not in tune with it?

Regards,
  wynfield
