Hi Eric,
You solved my problem; I called axis after the call to plot and the min-max obeyed my explicit definition.
The version of matplotlib that I am running is "python-matplotlib - 0.99.0-1ubuntu1 (amd64)".
Sorry for the incomplete code snippet that I submitted with my initial request. In the future I will submit working code.
Thank you for your swift response and thanks to all the matplotlib developers.
Sincerely,
Lee

>I am not seeing the problem when I try what I think is a minimal example; what version of mpl are you using? And have you tried calling axis after the call to plot? This might have been necessary in some earlier versions; I don't recall.
(In ipython -pylab, my example was this:
ax1 = gca()
ax1.axis([0,9.9,0,9.9])
ax1.plot([1,2])
draw()in which no rounding occurs.)
