Text placed on connection lines is misplaced. For example, try the following
code both in latex and xelatex, checking the dvi and pdf output respectively,
and see the difference in the placement of the text:

%~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
\documentclass [a4paper] {report}

\usepackage{pstricks}
\usepackage{pst-node}

\begin{document}
\begin{pspicture}(\textwidth, 10)
	\pnode(0.5,1.1){bottomInstructionLine}
	\pnode(0.5,8.5){topInstructionLine}
	\ncline{->}{topInstructionLine}{bottomInstructionLine}
	\ncput*[nrot=:D]{Instructions}
\end{pspicture}
\end{document}
