I am trying to render the attached PDF files with a command line like this:

cat ~/ghostscript/gpl/testfiles/cups-does-not-show/CityMap.pdf | gs
-sDEVICE=cups -sstdout=%stderr -sOutputFile=%stdout -r720x720
-dcupsBitsPerColor=8 -dcupsColorSpace=1 -_ > out.raster 2> log

This makes Ghostscript (both 8.71 and 9.00 of current SVN) error out like this:

Error: /undefined in --setpagedevice--
Operand stack:
   (/tmp/gs_OZCmcT)   --nostringval--   --dict:11/11(L)--   --dict:6/6(L)--

--dict:21/25(L)--
Current allocation mode is local
GPL Ghostscript SVN PRE-RELEASE 9.00: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1

The high resolution ("-r720x720") and the high color depth
("-dcupsBitsPerColor=8 -dcupsColorSpace=1") make the CUPS raster device
rendering in banding mode.

Lowering the resolution to "-r360x360" or raising the driver's cache size via

cat ~/ghostscript/gpl/testfiles/cups-does-not-show/CityMap.pdf |
RIP_MAX_CACHE=1G  gs -sDEVICE=cups -sstdout=%stderr -sOutputFile=%stdout
-r720x720 -dcupsBitsPerColor=8 -dcupsColorSpace=1 -_ > out.raster 2> log

make the file getting rendered correctly as probably Ghostscript is not using
the banding mode any more.
