I don't know where is the problem...
but making some tests I understood that the plot procedure become crazy
when works with 8 digits long integer number (such as your dates).
Now, you can easily avoid the "step line" problem with a translation of the
x-axis origin,
i.e.
> xtrasl=min(time)
> plot,time-xtrasl,data
and then, if you want, you can define the "original" thick marks playing with
the keywords:
xtickv=[a],xtickn=[b],xticks=n
where a and b and n are calculated from time and xtrasl

Hope that helps
