Yep, something wrong with 64-bit.

Fix is:

http://ghostscript.com/pipermail/gs-cvs/2005-August/005686.html

Unverified.  It is in GS707.
Comment 2 Tim Waugh 2006-01-23 10:13:27 UTC 
This is on the AFPL-licensed trunk though -- we need the author to apply it to
the GPL branch. :-/
Comment 3 Rick Richardson 2006-01-23 12:06:45 UTC 
Then don't compile gs in 64-bit.  fc1/fc2/Fc3/fc4/fc5 etc. should be compiled in
32-bit only, since 64-bit has lots of problems and you will not pay to get them
fixed.
