Mike,

I'm also affected by this problem.  I know, that "Me too" posts
are evil, but I think, it may by useful to point out older
threads and messages that were discussing this sort of problem.
My article can be found in the mailing list archives discussing
XFree:

  <URL:http://article.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin.xfree/14757>

In this message, I was referring to a thread of November 2003,
that also discusses this issue: 

  <URL:http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.os.cygwin/40818>

You may recognize the problems, but I'm afraid that there is no
solution yet proposed.

My "solution" at that time was to ignore the error messages and
to do without the preview.  I could use the presented bounding
box of the imported object to estimate size and position of the
imported EPS figure.

Regards,
Franz.
