On my machine, it works:
xvii:~> texdoc preview
xvii:~> Opening "/tmp/texdoc.Kg0sgw/preview.pdf" with gv (application/pdf)
where
xvii:~> locate /preview.pdf
/usr/share/doc/preview-latex-style/preview.pdf.gz
/usr/share/doc/texmf/latex/preview/preview.pdf.gz
but it uses gv instead of xpdf (specified by my .mailcap file).
And it goes to background too early (the message is output after
the prompt).
I don't know about dvi files, when the pdf one isn't available.
