In fact, I see the same result from make check on two different systems: Solaris 2.7 and OS X 10.2.6.
The "-0.00" values in reg-plot.ps.save are the kinds of values I saw in postscript files generated by R 1.7.0, i.e., prior to the fix of PR#3132.
In particular, in his r-help message on 2003-5-29 on the topic "Postscript query: plotting long vectors", Peter Dalgaard noted "If you want to use rlineto, you need to round *before* differencing." Values like "-0.00" could result from rounding *after* differencing, could they not?
My earlier message was from the OS X build. This is from make check on Solaris: comparing 'reg-plot.ps' to '../../source/tests/reg-plot.ps.save' ...100c100 < 663.53 0 l ---
663.53 -0.00 l
104c104 < 0 -7.20 l ---
-0.00 -7.20 l
On the OS X system: configure --prefix=/Users/macq/R/R-1.7.1 \ --enable-R-shlib --with-blas="-framework vecLib" --with-lapack \ CPPFLAGS="-I/sw/include" LDFLAGS="-L/sw/lib"
On the Solaris system source/configure --prefix=/erd/statistic/apps/R/R-1.7.1\ --with-tcl-config=/erd/statistic/apps/R/tcltk/tcl8.3.3/unix/tclConfig.sh\ --with-tk-config=/erd/statistic/apps/R/tcltk/tk8.3.3/unix/tkConfig.sh\ --enable-R-shlib PERL=/apps/gnu/perl5/perl5.8.0/bin/perl

It's telling us that your machine gives different output from *all* the other machines that were checked in the beta-test period. So what machine is this that no one beta tested? (In future please do participate in the beta test so your unusual system gets tested.)
As Rob G has reported this from FreeBSD earlier today it is probably already fixed in R-devel (it is for him). Fortunately the difference is in this case negligible.

I think this might be telling us that reg-plot.ps.save needs to be updated for the new version of postscript().
