The manual states: "Note, arbitrary rotation parameters such as 0.2 
(corresponding to 18) are possible, but the usual
values for the rotation parameter are 0., 1., 2., and 3. corresponding 
to 0 (landscape mode), 90
(portrait mode), 180 (seascape mode), and 270 (upside-down mode)
"

Maybe we should add to the manual that values, which are not 0,1,2,3, 
are only for experimental use. So, floats make sense, but this feature 
is still buggy.

It would be very helpful, if you find the time to send the bugs to the 
list - plplot will only become better, if we know what goes wrong for 
the user (and than try to fix it).
