The GNU equivalent of `a2ps' is called `enscript', and it *was*
ported; get v2gnu/ens150b.zip from SimTel.  I think it does support 2-up 
printing.

However, I have never tried to use `enscript' on PostScript files, it is 
usually meant to decorate ASCII files with PostScript niceties so it 
looks pretty on paper (that's why the Unix program is called `a2ps': 
it's ASCII-to-PostScript).  So I don't know whether `enscript' can print 
a PostScript file as 2-up, if the original file wasn't alredy formatted 
as 2-up.
