Ciao Tassilo, thank you for confirming the issue

i have to add that preview-mode, the elisp package, works inside a
XEmacs buffer with a beamer document, as long as i don't
\usepackage{preview} in my preamble... (OTOH, if i don't load
preview.sty, preview-mode makes a mess trying to render frames,etc)

as preview-mode works, there is a way to have pdflatex load
preview.sty w/o going south, isn't it?
