It looks like I messed up my install.  On top of that, when I was
testing this second time, I was not bothering to create the ps (from
latex) and just using my OS's default EPS viewer to verify that
transparency was working---the problem was that Evince displays images
on a white background rather than on some distinguishing background to
let me know that it is a transparent image.  Sorry for the noise, its
definitely working in r8282.
