[pdftex] strange bug!

Heiko, a couple of three questions come to order then ...
1- How come, if "bb" is not supported inside pdftex, if I take the
comments out, BOTH pictures show up, including the one with the
"bb" command option.
2- How does one use the _MediaBox_ inside pdfTeX ? I don't see ANY
mention of the word Media in the "graphicx" documentation ...
3- This have the potential to make files highly non-portable in
between latex and pdflatex. Aren't the MediaBox and the BoundingBox
the same thing, or at least, equivalent, for this purpose ?
Thanks,
Paulo Ney de Souza
