I see the same

The garbage is only a few bytes (at least in the test I tried just  
now), I don't think it is a preview.

More importantly: report this to the OmniGroup. This will ensure it  
is fixed in the next update (hopefully). The number of report usually  
determines the order on the todo list.

In the meantime: use pdf-export and pdflatex (I'd never notice the  
broken eps, since I mostly use pdf anyway).
