if you took a pace back, and let TeX handle it, you'd be better
off. Get TeX mode to *omit the suffix entirely* in the output, and
then the version of TeX (TeX or pdftex) can work out which file to
include. So write out a request for file "foo", and pdftex will choose
foo.pdf, and normal TeX will choose foo.eps
It sounds cock-eyed, but its the best solution.
