I don't think it's a bounding box problem. If I just use ghostscript
with its X-output it works (gs foo.ps).

It gets even more strange: If I disable antialiasing in gv or ggv, it
also works. Looks like a problem in those programs. However, I have
never seen similar problems with other postscript documents.

If I just add another "/showpage" to the top of the foo.ps file, gv
and ggv displays the file without problems even with anialiasing
turned on. I don't know anything about postscript so this may be just
good luck.

Bye,
