[R] issues with Sweave and inclusion of graphics in a document

the problem is a little hard to explain; the .Rnw files (below) probably do a better job, but here goes ... Sweave doesn't like it when i size a graphical device in a code chunk using either, e.g.: windows(width=20, height=5) in Windows, or, e.g. x11(width=20, height=5) under X
