The set_aspect function is called from axis() in pylab.py and I

One of the drawbacks of having pass through kwargs. grep isn't as
useful as you'd like it to be. This is a docstring bug in pylab.axis,
which should be updated to reflect the fixLimits kwarg (if it survives
the refactor).

John,

Yes, I will try to check all relevant docstrings on my next pass--this evening, if all goes well.

At least some of the things I missed were greppable; I just didn't spend enough time to check everything carefully.
