I got that one a few times too, but could not yet trace the problem down
completely. It happened to some eps files I converted to pdf using
distiller. These were the only eps files with previews, and thereby had
some funny garbage lines after the pdf 1.2 header line. Rather fuzzy.
The zipped streams look ok to me.

It's a xpdf tex problem I guess.
