Is this actually a bug? I mean it's a change in behaviour, but is it right to say that it should have a white background?
Transparent seems perfectly reasonable to me for a postscript rendering of an eps image - especially since there is an option to turn alpha off if you don't want it.
Postscript on a real printer wouldn't put a big block of white unless it was explicitly there, and if you print on a blue piece of paper you'll get blue not white!
