Silly me, of course I had .PS figures in the document, no wonder there
were PS specials in there...
So just to test this theory I just went through the document and
commented out all the \includegraphics commands. I ran
preview-document again and got:
> dvipng warning: at (1,0) ignored header
> \special{!/address@hidden(CVS-1.107)def}
now, however, preview-latex seems to ignore the warning and happily
uses all the bits and pieces produced by dvipng (at least there is no
trace of dvips+gs running in the log).
I guess what confused me was that (incorrectly, it seems) assumed that
the warnings were what triggered the failure, as they were the last
lines in the log before
"preview-dvipng [or something similar to that] failed".
Oh well...
Thanks for quick response...
