You are absolutely right, I do have export XUSERFILESEARCHPATH="$HOME/.Xresources" set in my ~/.bashrc (although I can't remember why it is actually here). I also confirm that your other suggestion works on my system : removing the .gv file but adding GV.version: gv 3.6.5 to the ~/.Xresources file also enables gv again.
