Hi Alan
I will try to do this. Unfortunately the fail case of mine was very well
wrapped in my own wrapper code so it might be a challenge to generate a simple
test.

Subject: Re: [Plplot-devel] Bug in notcrossed() function of plfill.c
Hi Phil:
I have been looking carefully at the parts of the fill code that are
affected by notcrossed, and I think we are dealing with a fairly
complex issue here that is larger than just the criterion that is used
to decide on the PL_NEAR_PARALLEL status. So to make sure that the
final fix really addresses the PLplot failure you discovered that
started this thread, I would greatly appreciate it if you sent me a
test case that replicates that failure for the current master tip
version of PLplot. Ideally, if your original test case requires
access to data files and/or data processing to determine the data that
are being plotted, it would be good to figure out (say with a debugger
or appropriate print statement) the exact arguments to plfill that
cause the issue, and simply use those exact arguments for a
self-contained test case that triggers the exact same failure
that you originally discovered.
Alan
