On second thought, I don't need to duplicate your work, all I really  
need is a copy of a working plot-stream to compare with the current  
one.;

If you can run the last working version of octave, create a working  
plot stream ...

	close all
	plot (1:10)
	drawnow ("x11", "/dev/null", false, "debug.gp")

Then we can compare the result with the current sources to see what is  
different.
