utter nonsense, sorry. New try: the graphics.1 isn't a ready .eps file
as the fshow operator and the cmmi7 font aren't defined (but the TeX
part is done ok already). Therefore epstopdf can't work. E. g. if you
set prologues:=1; after "mpost graphics" you get the missing lines

 /cmmi7 /CMMI7 def
/fshow {exch findfont exch scalefont setfont show}bind def

in graphics.1 that make gs happy. In addition gs would need a CMMI7
entry in its Fontmap file to get epstopdf run correctly. Maybe the
prologues line got lost? (All this is simplified by mptopdf.)
