The following fix the problem.

=> build Xaw3d-1.6.1 with:

--enable-internationalization
--enable-multiplane-bitmaps
--enable-gray-stipples
--enable-arrow-scrollbars

=> then build gv with:

export CFLAGS="${CFLAGS} `pkg-config --cflags xaw3d`"

This is from the following discussion (I tested it and it works).
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gv/2012-02/msg00014.html

Do we really need that heavy changes in xaw3d just for one pkg? Can you lease test for unwanted side effects?

I have not seen any other side effects, even when not recompiling other packages that depend of xaw3d and using binaries as is (tested with xfig, timidity, xvkbd and a custom build of emacs with xaw3d). As I have understood, these options were the default in previous versions of xaw3d. These configure switch enable optional feature of xaw3d, I do not find enabling a few configure options as a big change. There is not much xaw3d software anymore and gv is the only way to direct interact with ghostscript graphically. I would rebuild xaw3d with the switches. To be on the safe side, we might consider to put such xaw3d in the testing repository for a few days/weeks.

This is fixed in gv 3.7.3.90 and hopefully also in upcoming gv 3.7.4, see http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gv/2012-02/msg00015.html
