Rubber crashes trying to compile to PDF a TeX file with EPS figures:
$ rubber --pdf foo.tex
(...)
converting ./Figures/foo.eps to PDF...
Traceback (most recent call last):

OSError: [Errno 8] Exec format error
'epstopdf' failed
The origin of the problem looks to be the absence of shebang on the
epstopdf perl script. Attached a naive parch that solves the problem
for people who are using bash, not sure if it'd be the general
solution...
