Option --as-shown is only meaningful, if some layers are switched off.
However, I don't see a way to switch off layers with the command line. 
The option
	--action-string ToggleView(1) 
does not seem to have an effect on pcb. (Yet another bug?)

To reproduce the eps output bug in GTK-GUI:

1) Load a layout with SMD pads

2) switch off visibility of the first copper layer ( :ToggleView(1) )

3) Got to: file -> export_layout -> eps
  
4) check "as-shown"

5) click "ok"

The produced eps file will contain the visible layers, and pins, but no 
SMD pads.
