Eps files generated with 'print -deps' are huge. Unecessarily so it
seems. They contain, at least under 4.0, a section with no information:

%%BeginPreview: 560 420 1 420
%ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
...
%%EndPreview

Can this 'feature' be disabled, turned off, short of having to remove it
by hand?
