problem with the PS-backend in matplotlib 0.64

Jochen,
I used the PS-backend today and I think there's a problem with landscape
plots. When I view the PS files with 'gv' it looks like the bounding box
is landscape but the figure is drawn as portrait.

Regards,
Steve

I checked in the patch yesterday evening. The patch decreased the
total size of the PostScript files generated by backend_driver.py from
37MB to 31MB.

All the best,
Jochen

Thanks for catching this. It can be fixed with the following
patch (already in CVS):
