I cannot see this:

\documentclass[a5paper]{article}
\usepackage{pstricks}
\begin{document}
\noindent
\rule{\linewidth}{1pt}

some nonsense see some nonsense see some nonsense xx page~3 ... %@line x

\end{document}

gives an overfull hbox with "page 3" not broken at the line end.
Replace the ~ with a space and you'll get the default linebreak.
