[AUCTeX] The Journal of Statisticsl Software style file breaks preview

[Faheem Mitha]

Hi,

The jss.sty style file contained in 
http://www.jstatsoft.org/downloads/JSSstyle.zip breaks AUCTeX's preview 
for me even with a simple file. NOTE: the jsslogo.jpg file is also 
required. For example,the following file

    \documentclass[article]{jss}
    \begin{document}
    $x$
    \end{document}

gives the error

    LaTeX found no preview images

Can anyone

a) confirm this
b) tell me what the problem is?

I've also posted this to tex.stackexchange.com at 
http://tex.stackexchange.com/q/151696/3406

Please CC me on any reply. Thanks.

                                  Regards, Faheem
