I'm not sure if it's the real problem here (it was quoted in the 'sh
-c' version'). If you can replicate the problem, try
cat /proc/PID/cmdline | xargs -0 -n 1 echo
which will split each option onto a separate line, so you can see if
the quoting worked or not.

It could be (I've seen this before). What is responsible for invoking
gs?
Also set LogLevel to debug in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf, and then have a
look in /var/log/cups/error_log.
