Indeed, I could check that \pdfgentounicode=0 solves the issue.
However, this means that I can no longer use my own \pdfglyphtounicode
mappings until Ghostscript is fixed.
FYI, there wasn't any issue on the following code with the texlive
Debian packages previous to 2021.20210921-1:
\pdfglyphtounicode{ff}{0066 0066}
\pdfglyphtounicode{ffi}{0066 0066 0069}
\pdfglyphtounicode{ffl}{0066 0066 006C}
\pdfglyphtounicode{fi}{0066 0069}
\pdfglyphtounicode{fl}{0066 006C}
\pdfgentounicode=1
