Comment (by ionic@…):

 I can see the same behavior on a Gentoo Linux box. é-like characters are
 missing completely. But Gentoo is special, in that it does not ship the GS
 fonts at all (which causes problems with infinality and printing...)

 So, testing on Debian, with packages `ghostscript`, `ghostscript-x`,
 `gsfonts` and `gsfonts-x11` installed.  This actually works fine.

 I think the reporter has a point, although you're probably right that this
 is a bug in ghostscript. Very likely, it should be using the embedded
 Courier font. Adding the std fonts package is a valid workaround, though.
