Thanks Hans, for your report.  It turns out this was a typographical bug =
for
the single-precision case which has been there from the genesis of our =
CMake
build system (which tells something about how often single-precision is =
used
any more, and how we rely on our users to explore all configuration =
byways
of PLplot that we have failed to test).  I have just fixed this bug in =
svn
(revision 8132).  Could you please try our svn trunk version (see
http://sourceforge.net/svn/?group_id=3D2915 for directions) to make sure =
that
single-precision uniformly works again for PLplot?

BTW, normally our trunk version is stable (unless a big commit is in
progress) since our developers (including me) tend to use the trunk =
version
both for formal testing and daily use.  Each new release comes off the =
trunk
version when we feel we have accumulated enough change to make a release
worth while.  So it would be unusual for you to find any additional =
issues
with the trunk version, but please report them if you do.

It's most satisfying to nail such typographical bugs so thanks again for
your help in finding it!

Alan
