I'm reasonably sure it's not just ghostscript.  And there's no unstable 
tree for 10.8.  The latest fink (0.34.8) was supposed to fix this problem.

How are you getting administrative access: a root account, "sudo" 
(possibly with some flags),  or "su" (possibly with some flags?  Let us 
know _exactly_ what you're using, as well as the the setting of 
RootMethod in /sw/etc/fink.conf.  That way we can try to reproduce the 
problem.

As a workaround, try "fink --no-build-as-nobody install gnuplot" (or 
whatever gnuplot variant you really want), which will force fink to 
build as root.
