Thak you for your test. This give me a bit of comfort ;)

It is a XeTeX, Version 3.1415926-2.4-0.9998 (TeX Live 2012/Debian)

Really? For what? Why can't you use tikz?
Any advice!?
Unlike me you have a system where it works and a system where it
doesn't work, so you can try to figure out what is the crucial
difference. Perhaps it is one of the driver files - then it should
be easy to remedy. If the problem resides somewhere in the windows
binaries you will have to make a bug report.
But use a smaller document for the investigation:
\documentclass{beamer}
\usepackage{pstricks}
\usetheme{Singapore}
\begin{document}
\frame{blub}
\end{document}

Hello everybody, This is indeed the latest version from SVN. However, even glyphs with correct names' fail to be copied correctly, as you can see: so, maybe this is not the real issue.

Really? For what? Why can't you use tikz?
I used pstricks to insert arrows dynamically connecting different elements
in a slide.
Actually, your comment make me aware of this tikz capability ;)
And it seems also more supported and performant than pstricks!
Thank you very much.
Any advice!?

A part from the pstrick/tikz change...
The real problem is the pstricks package, as you abserved.
Even in your minimal test file the error arises.
But removing the pstricks call it disappears!
And also in my real life presentation, removing pstricks, the compilation
completes without error and the
front page has its shaded background, as expected.
Now...I am satisfied to have found a solution...But
I will not be able to sleep (this is not true, obviously :) ) until I
understand what's happening!
Why the combination of pstricks and pgf gives these errors?
It seems more like a clash of some piece of code.
I will investigate, also on the basis of the hints given by other group
members.
Thank you very much
Federico
