I guess that the internal C-code of "plot" uses automatic conversion
of the arguments to float as demonstrated in the "Advanced Development
Guide". To enable plots of double precision data, you needed either to
switch entirely to C double data inside "plot" or duplicate the internal
code to handle both data types appropiately.
