i just had the same problem.
this is the fix from darren at hylafax.com

You need the new ghostscript RPMS, not just the fonts tarball. But even
this
is out of date at the moment. The recommended procedure is to head to

http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/

and grab:
ftp://ftp.cs.wisc.edu/ghost/aladdin/gs550/linux/ghostscript-5.50-2.i386.rpm

and
ftp://ftp.cs.wisc.edu/ghost/aladdin/gs550/linux/ghostscript-fonts-5.50-1.noarch.rpm

Then do:
rpm -Uvh ghost*.rpm

Then fetch:
ftp://ftp.hylafax.org/hylafax/binary/linux/rpms/i386/hylafax-4.0pl2-3rh5.i386.rpm

and install with:
rpm -ivh --nodeps hylafax-4.0pl2-3rh5.i386.rpm

Redhat ships with an older version of ghostscript than I am comfortable
with,
hence the requirement of at least 5.10. If you would like to grab the
SRPM and
fiddle this yourself you might get away with it.

a good idea is to look at the old emails sent in.
this procedure works wonderfully - thanks Darren.
