I like subtle bugs :-)
Looking a bit further, I see that the problem is with GRDocView 
-updatePrintInfo:. This method changes the size of the document view according 
to the size of the printer's page rectangle. Now on the machine where things 
don't work for me (GNUstep on OS X), the pageRect is empty, i.e., (0,0,0,0), 
which means that the document view's size is set to zero making it effectively 
invisible.
Now I don't know whether this is due to recent changes in GRDocView.m (I didn't 
bother looking through its history) or is a problem inside -gui. In the latter 
case, it maybe worth pointing out that I'm using the GSLPR printer classes 
(can't use GSCUPS on OS X because it links in Apple's Objective C runtime).
