I can confirm the problem, running:
R version 2.8.1 Patched (2009-01-24 r47726)
on Fedora 10.
The problem is actually worse if using the pdf() device, with additional
artifacts present.
There was a posting about this back in 2003:
https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2003-August/037348.html
with no replies. There is a bug report here from 2004:
http://bugs.r-project.org/cgi-bin/R/Graphics?id=6763
that seems to be related. So it seems the issue has been around for a while.
I tried increasing the granularity of the color scale, though without
any benefit.
Will have to defer to the graphics device wizaRds on this one.
