Comment:
Near as I can tell, the best solution is to add a `set_options` method to
the `GraphicPrimitive` class, then modify the `matplotlib` function to
ensure the options have type `float`, rather than `RealLiteral`. This
keeps the patch short, clean, and simple. I added corresponding doctests,
which test fine for me. This fixes the bug on my machine.
I suspect we should be able to remove all the hacks being used in other
files to convert options to `float` (e.g., `circle`, `disc`, `line`, ...).
That is not part of this patch, though I could add another patch to do so,
if desirable.
