Interesting. Much to my surprise, it seems I have a more recent version 
of pst-pdf than you (and pdftex.cfg too, though the different pst-pdf 
seems far more likely to the be issue). Unfortunately, the last entry in 
the change log at CTAN is for version 1.1n and there aren't any comments 
in pst-pdf.sty, so I have no idea what the differences between your 
version and mine are. Nor can I find a copy of version 1.1o anywhere. 
Would you mind sending me a copy of your pst-pdf.sty privately? (Unless, 
of course, you'd rather get the latest from CTAN and diff them yourself....)
