The current version of graph.py in CVS does indeed have the form

	apply( gvbars.__init__, (self,), args)

So the problem seems to be how the Linux 1.5.2 distribution is put together.

I GUESS for now I'll grab the .zip, and monkey with that.
More than one string replacement needed... Here's what I see:

  $ grep "\*\*" *.py

  __init__.py:    def __call__(self, *args, **kw):
  __init__.py:    def __call__(self, *args, **kw):
  graph.py:    number = 10.**mantissa
  graph.py:    return (sign*(array(marks)*10.**exponent)).tolist(), format
  graph.py:    def __init__(self, **args):
  graph.py:    def plot(self, **args):
  graph.py:    def __init__(self, **args):
  graph.py:    def plot(self, **args):
  graph.py:    def __init__(self, **args):
  graph.py:    def plot(self, **args):
  graph.py:    def __init__(self, **args):
  graph.py:    def plot(self, **args):
  graph.py:    def __init__(self, **args):
  graph.py:        gvbars.__init__(self, **args)
  graph.py:    def __init__(self, **args):
  graph.py:        ghbars.__init__(self, **args)
  graph.py:    def __init__(self, **args):
  graph.py:        gdots.__init__(self, **args)
