To my best knowledge, the bbox of the eps output before r8102 was incorrect for some cases. r8102 was my attempt to fix some of the issues. The ps backend is quite complicated in how final output is produced (psfrag, distiller, pstoeps), and this often messes up the initially specified bbox and results in incorrect ones. While I think I fixed some of the issues, there still could be some left. And I hope someone who is more knowledgeable than me take a look. For the reported issue, I haven't take a time to investigate (but I will soon), but I doubt if it is an issue of pstoeps function (as I said, it seems to write a matching save-restore pair).
