Yes, I have noticed in my experimenting that it is possible
with either keyword to cause the legend to be positioned outside
the window, just by repeatedly resizing the window!

I get the same gray box, but it goes away when
I resize the window. Unfortunately, though, only
the second line now appears in the legend.

I have no answer to your question. I only note that using /NORMAL
instead of /DATA is no more reliable !
But you can get something worse with your simple code: without
resizing the window, please push the UNDO button. The legend
disappears, not unexpectedly since that is the last object created in
your plot. But, now, please push the REDO button ... On my screen, the
legend is now partly overrided by a big grey square with a border,
without any possibility to recover it ! Likely, some pointer has been
lost in the operation.
alain.

Now that I think about it, maybe this is the same
bug that causes the legend to completely disappear
on log plots. Is that possible?
