But which *added* file creates the problem? I am slightly 
surprised about this, and can only possible blame it on
latex-cjk as the other packages do not do anything related to
ghostscript and do not add fonts to the general search path.

Can you please check what file is read by gs that creates the
problem?

Furthermore, *why* do you want gs recommends texlive-lang-cjk?
What do you need as gs from it?

Title:
  ghostscript fails on some EPS files

Status in ghostscript package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in texlive-lang package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  On Ubuntu 15.04, running in the cloud, I issue to following command to
  find the Bounding Box on the attached EPS. When I download the
  ghostscript binary from ghostscript.com or try the same on my FreeBSD
  server, it works just fine. Here's the command to reproduce:

  $ gs -q -sDEVICE=bbox -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -dSAFER -dEPSCrop -r300
  broken-on-ubuntu-1504.eps

  The expected output:
  %%BoundingBox: 87 81 1515 1510
  %%HiResBoundingBox: 87.840941 81.600003 1514.790058 1509.385370

  The output on Ubuntu 15.04:
