Patrice,
auto-pst-pdf uses the switch \ifpdf to test, if it is the run
with latex to create the pictures via pst-pdf or if it is the
final pdflatex run to insert the created pictures as images.

If you are using latex as main program then all this cannot
work and one should use

\usepackage[off]{auto-pst-pdf}
