just a quick ugly hack:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{pst-node,pst-grad}
\makeatletter
\def\ncLine{\pst at object{ncLine}}
\def\ncLine at i{\check at arrow{\ncLine at ii}}
\def\ncLine at ii#1#2{\nc at object{Open}{#1}{#2}{.5}{ \tx at ncLine }}
\pst at def{ncLine}<
   NCCoor
   tx at Dict begin
   /YA ED /XA ED /YB ED /XB ED
   XB XA sub /Length ED
   XA YA moveto
   CLW 8 mul dup rlineto
   0 CLW -4 mul rlineto
   Length CLW 16 mul sub 0 rlineto
   0 CLW 4 mul rlineto
   CLW 8 mul dup neg rlineto
   CLW 8 mul neg dup rlineto
   0 CLW 4 mul rlineto
   Length CLW 16 mul sub neg 0 rlineto
   0 CLW 4 mul neg rlineto
   closepath
   end
