Ok I checked a bit, gs-gpl is linked against libpaper, and in the
changelog.Debian one can find:
* src/imainarg.c: Reapply the papersize diff from debian/patches.
so it seems that the LANGUAGE or respective settings change the output
size of gs.
I would call dvipdf as follows:
dvipdf -sPAPERSIZE=a4 ...
since the options are carried over to the gs executable.
Best wishes

TYNE and WEAR (nouns)
The 'Tyne' is the small priceless or vital object accidentally dropped
on the floor (e.g. diamond tie clip, contact lens) and the 'wear' is
the large immovable object (e.g. Welsh dresser, car-crusher) that it
shelters under.
