I cannot duplicate your problem here using RedHat Linux 7.1.
HOWEVER, I suspect that you can remedy your problem by editing the
relevant typerules entry to place quotes around the input file. Like
this:

You may need to escape those quotes (perhaps even escape the escape)
like this:

HOWEVER, textfmt shouldn't be called to process PostScript files in the
first place. So you may want to check on the validity of the
PostScript files you're using.
