Subject: [Rd] Quartz doesn't display x-axis properly until a window resize
	(PR#11368)

In R 2.7.0 for Mac OS X, Quartz plots are drawn a little bit off-screen. What
happens is that
the plots appear to be displayed a little below than where they should be in the
Quartz window,
causing the x-axis to be drawn off-screen, "below" the bottom of the Quartz
window.
When resizing the window, the Quartz windows' size and the particular plots'
size are matched
and only after doing that you can see the entire graphics properly.

In http://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/RMacOSX-FAQ.html#Sparse-questions,
point 12.8, it is explained that Quartz plots are much bigger now because
"all devices in R have a default size of 7 inches. Quartz used a default of 5
inches and that was now changed to match all other devices." However, the above
bug shows this hasn't been corrected.

I attach the sessionInfo() output below.
