I've isolated the problem on my system to the inclusion of the preview 
package.  So I've gotten a bit further, and will keep investigating on 
the bug/ticket tracker:

PS: test works for both latex and pdflatex, but the patterns are 
different from qt.  (I think patterns are terminal specific.)  The one 
difference is that the result from "latex" on the tikz-tex output does 
not have the alpha blending, while "pdflatex" processing produces an 
output with alpha blending of the hexagons.
