 From ghostscript-8.configure in the GhostScript 8 i-Package:

     if ( -e "/usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.6.dylib" ) {
	print "### ${PROGNAME}: Detected X11R6 installation.\n";
	system( "rm \"${II2INSTALLDIR}/bin/gs\"");
	system( "ln -s gs-X11 \"${II2INSTALLDIR}/bin/gs\"");
     }
     else {
	print "### ${PROGNAME}: X11R6 installation not detected.\n";
	system( "rm \"${II2INSTALLDIR}/bin/gs\"");
	system( "ln -s gs-noX11 \"${II2INSTALLDIR}/bin/gs\"");
     }

Thus it seems gs is made an alias to either gs-X11 or gs-noX11 at  
install time, depending on whether Apple X11 is present or not.  
Indeed, on my setup (which includes Apple X11) I get:

/usr/local/bin $ ls -l gs*
lrwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel        6 Mar 17 06:53 gs -> gs-X11
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root  admin  6224112 Feb  6 19:36 gs-X11
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root  admin  6110324 Feb  6 19:36 gs-noX11
