No, it is not like that. I can separately capture stderr and stdout.
I tried compiling dvipng 1.7 under cygwin, which should be more
reliable, and I am seeing a similar problem:

$ dvipng ...
This is dvipng 1.7 Copyright 2002-2005 Jan-Ake Larsson
dvipng warning: cannot find ps2pk.map, nor psfonts.map
[1 (preview-latex version 11.81) depth=6 height=16]

The warning should not matter. It is due to the fact that I used the
cygwin tetex-devel package (for libkpathsea) and simply did:

$ ln -s /c/texmf /usr/share/texmf

for using the MikTeX texmf tree, but unfortunately ps2pk.map and
psfonts.map are not in /c/texmf:

$ kpsewhich ps2pk.map
C:/localtexmf/dvips/config/ps2pk.map
$ kpsewhich psfonts.map
C:/localtexmf/dvips/config/psfonts.map

So, I am going to read the libkpathsea documentation for setting some
environment variable...

I'll see what it turns out to be. Having the sources, I can use ddd for
debugging dvipng.
