[Bug-AUCTeX] 11.83; pst-pdf disables preview-latex

[Patrick Drechsler]

Remember to cover the basics.  Including a minimal LaTeX example
file exhibiting the problem might help.

Hi,

I have reported this before[1]. Using the package pst-pdf
displays no image when typing `C-c C-p C-b'. Excluding the
pst-pdf package works fine (image is created). Since both
preview-latex and pst-pdf use preview.sty I can see which
direction trouble is coming from. Searching the preview-latex
manual did reveal any further hints.

Is there a workaround for this?

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{pst-pdf}
\begin{document}
\begin{equation}
  \label{eq:1}
  a^2+b^2=c^2
\end{equation}
\end{document}
--8<------------------------schnapp------------------------->8---

Kind Regards

Patrick
