If you have access to Mathematica (by Wolfram Reseach), it contains some
executabels used by Mathematica to display PostScript graphics *created
by Mathematica*.  They do not support the whole of postscript language.
The files are in /{usr}/mathematica/Bin.{machine}/Display/ directory. It
contains sunps(SunView), x11ps(X Windows, v.11),
tekps(Tektronix-emulation), ttyps(character, NeWS.view.

To use Mathematica, you have to be a licensed user registered with Wolfram.
I guess that applies to these binaries as well as "math" binary executable.

I tried to display other ps files using x11ps, but had no luck.
