Bug Description
As discovered in bug 585286, there is no way to specify the EPS Language Level when exporting a SVG to EPS on the command line.
Because of bug 491590, this means that by default, EPS exports are always PS Level 2.
Workaround: Normally, when exporting an EPS using the command line, the previous setting is used, so by exporting an EPS manually at PS Level 2, all future exports will be at Level 3.

More generally it might be useful to add a command line option to specify the language level for EPS/PS and PDF export (with Cairo >=1.10 PDF can be either 1.4 or 1.5, see bug #664335), regardless of whether the language level chooser in the GUI is buggy or not.
