The output of a call to legend(CELL) is show below. Similar output is
produced in calls to legend(S1,S2,S3) and legend(MATSTR). The call to
plot that created the figure to call legend(X) on created three
linespoints plots with names "Mean", "Minimum" and "Maximum".
Calling legend('boxon'), in the legend('func') class of calls, produces
the expected results.
The original plot was changed to have only one line and no label for the
key as well as plotted in normal lines plot style and similar outputs
(and exactly the same error) was displayed.
