Wrong again....  :-)

Revision 11318 changed the pllegend API again (and also changed the
Python bindings and C and Python examples accordingly).  The
motivation for that change is I would like to demonstrate multiple
legends aligned with each other for example 33, and for such alignment
you need to make the legend_width and legend_height calculated by
pllegend accessible to the calling routine.

I urge developers and users here to test pllegend capabilities
immediately by modifying the Python (especially example 33) or C
examples.  That "immediately" is because we want to finalize the
pllegend API as early as possible in this release cycle.  I am
actually pretty sure that API is finalized now, but we might be
blindsided by additional needs late in this release cycle or even in
the next release cycle unless you all immediately do some inventive
testing and/or thinking about how pllegend will be used in the future.
