[Xy-pic] Thick lines in pdflatex

    B.  Typeset the diagrams as separate graphics, then use dvips -E
        to encapsulate them; convert to PDF using Ghostscript
        then import the resulting graphic into your document.
   
I used option B before. However, I had to adjust the bounding box
of the resulting eps by hand. Now I wonder who is to blame for
that? Me? Tex? xypic? dvips?

Here is the latex source:

\documentclass[
        a4paper,

        ]{article}
\usepackage[matrix,arrow,frame,curve,line,rotate]{xy}
\xyoption{ps}
\xyoption{dvips}

\begin{document}
\pagestyle{empty}
  \[
    \xymatrix at C+2em{
      *++[F][F,:<2pt>]++{\textsf{Spec I}}
      &
      *++<1em,3em>[F][F,:<3pt>]++{\textsf{Spec II}}
      \ar at 2@*{[|(3)]}[l]_-[left]*{\hbox{~~refinement}}
      &
      *++<1em,5em>[F][F,:<4pt>]++{\textsf{Spec III}}
      \ar at 2@*{[|(3)]}[l]_-[left]*{\hbox{~~long~refinement}}
      &
      *[left]+<5em,5em>[F][F,:<5pt>]++{\textsf{Implementation}}
      \ar at 2@*{[|(3)]}[l]_-[left]*{\hbox{~~model}}
    }
  \]
\end{document}

Tex 3.14159 and Xy-pic 3.7 produce the following DVI:

However, in the eps, the long refinement is cut off:

I produced the eps with
   dvips -P cmz -E -o refinepic.eps refinepic.dvi
version 5.92b.
