Hi,

In xetex svn, v0.93 of xetex.def [1] introduced the EPS support, as this
changelog said:

2007/10/25  [JK] Version v0.93  added EPS support from dvipdfmx.def
            (for use with xdvipdfmx, default driver in xetex 0.997)

this change is present in TeX Live 2008. But in TeX Live 2009, v0.93 of
this file (texmf-dist/tex/xelatex/xetex-def/xetex.def from package xetex-def)
is replaced by:

2009/10/28  [RRM] Version v0.93  fix big-point incompatibility;

So the EPS support added by Jonathan, which appeared in TeX Live 2008
is removed in TeX Live 2009. Why?
