Sag generates data outside of the bounds it sets for itself in calls
to space().  On 386/ix 1.0.5, AIX, and my 3B2 3.1v2, sag (actually
graph) calls space(0, 0, 4096, 4096), then consitently generates
output values greater than 4096.  In particular, sag graphs go too far
to the right.  This is very apparent when printing graphs on a
PostScript printer, as the output gets cut off on the right side.

However, sag appears to behave properly at least some of the time.
When I generate output for tek4014 and preview it on my 5620, all
appears fine.  I have not intercepted the plot(5) data in this case to
determine what space() is set to.
