I believe that if given a :file header argument the gnuplot block will
return the path to the altered file as it's return result.  You could
use a :var header argument to feed this path into a shell script code
block which could call eps2eps on the resulting file.

With this setup, every time the sh code block is evaluated it will call
the gnuplot code block before it is run.  See the relevant manual
chapter for more information.
