Simpler example of breakage:

gnuplot>  set title offset 1,1
          undefined variable: offset


What has happened is that whenever the keyword "title"
is seen, the parser calls try_to_get_string(), which
then chokes if the next token on the line is a keyword
rather than a string or an expression.

I don't know when or how this broke - possibly at the
time of Harald Harders' addition of the generalized
"offset" keyword for all string positions.

I'm not sure yet where to fix it.
