It works for me in 21 sec and only 52kB of stdout. :-) The difference is
that my PostScript is generated via fop (version 0.20.5) and Ian's via the
PassiveTeX route. I have seen varying versions of DocBook + PassiveTeX
breaking in various wonderful & arcane ways in the past, so I recommend
installing fop. The configure process will prefer fop if it finds it, just
for that reason, BTW.

Cheers,
    S.
