That's very odd.  PmWiki is supposed to recognize the 
[[ ... -> ... ]] form -- I wonder why it is failing here?

The {=$Titlespaced} doesn't have any effect here, since the '+' controls
the link text.  By default '+' says to use the page's title or name
(unspaced).

If you want to change the '+' to mean $Titlespaced instead of $Title,
try the following in local/config.php:

  Markup('[[|+', '<[[|',
    "/(?>\\[\\[([^|\\]]+))\\|\\s*\\+\\s*]]/e",
    "Keep(MakeLink(\$pagename, PSS('$1'),
         PageVar(MakePageName(\$pagename,PSS('$1')), '\$Titlespaced')),
         'L')");
