#6811: prime_pi.plot is wrong (!)

 I was computed Riemann's analytic formula for pi(X), and was disturbed it
 wasn't converging to pi(X).  It turned out that the function in Sage for a
 while for plotting prime_pi is buggy! For example, try this:
 {{{
 sage: prime_pi.plot(5,10).show(gridlines='minor',frame=True)
 sage: prime_pi(8)
 4
 }}}
 You'll see a plot that has a horizontal line at height 5 on it.

 This is very bad and embarrassing!
