You might want to try feeding it "1 1 add" instead of "1 1 +"

[Begin recording]

Crispin Goswell wrote a PostScript interpreter which is freely
distributable (though not public domain) It is available from
the various comp.sources.unix archives.  The ones I know of are:

j.cc.purdue.edu, comp.sources.unix/volume12, v12i050.Z through v12i067.Z

uunet.uu.net, comp.sources.unix/volume12/postscript, part01.Z through part18.Z

There are a number of bug fixes and improvements available via
anonymous ftp to z.andrew.cmu.edu (128.2.30.8) in the subdirectory
psdiffs.  The patches should be applied to an unpacked virgin
distribution.  READ THE INSTRUCTIONS AT THE BEGINNING OF EACH FILE
BEFORE APPLYING THEM WITH PATCH.
