[GRASS-user] ps.map vpoints eps trouble

Hi List

I have a vector layer with points representing sites. I want to use eps 
graphics to represent the sites in ps.map. I define the the points layer in 
the map description file like below

vpoints sites
  color black
  fcolor 98 87 78
#  symbol basic/circle
  eps /home/frank/brassard.svg.eps
  rotate 0
  masked n
  size 1
  where epoch = 'Préhistoire' and category = 'Objet isolé'
  label Objet isolé
  end

but when I run 
ps.map -e input=epc/grass\ maps/prehis_cate.txt output=prehis_cate.ps

ps.map exits with a segmentation fault: Segmentation fault (core dumped)

I thought, that maybe the image is not in a good eps format, since I convert 
them from svg to eps, but testing the image with

eps 50% 50%
  epsfile /home/frank/brassard.svg.eps
  scale 3
  rotate 0
  masked n
  end

runs without any problems. So I really don't have a clue why the eps point 
representation doesn't work, since there is no error code or something. Any 
help is greatly appreciated.

Greetings 

Frank
