I think I've found the problem, although it will take patching and
rebuilding ImageMagick (which I haven't done) to confirm that I'm right.
In the ImageMagick source file coders/ps.c:237, there's a call to
ghost_info->new_instance, a.k.a. gsapi_new_instance (see line 214).
The documentation of the latter in the ghostscript sources
(psi/iapi.c:57) says that the first argument pinstance should satisfy
*pinstance == NULL in the first call to that function.
But *pinstance in this call is the variable 'interpreter', defined
without initialization in ps.c:191. As a result, **pinstance contains
garbage, and the program eventually crashes when it tries to
dereference a garbage pointer.
The fix, if I'm right, is to initialize interpreter to NULL in ps.c:191.

a test ImageMagick-6.9.10.11-3 is going up.
Let me know if it solves the problem
