Following your hint, I tried to run texi2dvi from within the source 
gsl-1.3/doc/ directory. It seems to work, but I got the following error 
message at the end:

What does it mean?

Anyway gsl-ref.dvi was created and it seems to be complete and after 
the dvips-ps2pdf dance I've got a good looking pdf file.

Thanks,
Andrea.
