[metapost] metapost bug reports

[Taco Hoekwater]

Hi,

I have a request for help. There are a few bugs in the
database that apply to the graph.mp file. It would be
great if somebody with knowledge of those bugs (or at least
the macros in graph.mp) could help solving those. Any
volunteers will be highly appreciated!

Greetings, Taco
