I guess -P- should be the default, as well as -dSAFER should be. The way gv invokes gs is "wrong". For example, using command gv /tmp/any.ps will do: chdir("/tmp/") execve(..., "gs", ... "-dSAFER", ... "any.ps", ...) So gv is careful to use -dSAFER but does not know about -P-. I notified bug-gv@gnu.org about this, see http://bugs.debian.org/583316 also.
