i did some tests with gnuplot 4.0 patchlevel 0:

regardless what i did
- move the mouse excessively with middle button pressed
- set 'scale' and 'scale_z' to absolutely nonsense values (e.g. set view
60,30,10000,10000)
i didn't succeed in producing a segmentation fault!

i got artefacts, many of them... but no program crash.

this means, replacing the assert statements in version 4.2 doesn't result in
complete version 4.0 behaviour, there are some more differences.
