Hum, I can definitely reproduce the problem here with the Dutch .ps,
maybe this comes from my version of Ghostscript, I am using gs-gpl
version 8.54.dfsg.1-5. The complete error message is:

I have tried with gs-esp (8.15.3.dfsg.1-1) and it works, so there is
most probably something wrong with gs-gpl.
