I have just pushed a modified/fixed version of these patches. Actually
with a bit modified policy than the one described in my previous mail:

1. One can add a persistent listener with
addlistener (handle, propertyname, cbfunction, "persistent")

2 One can delete all persistent listeners on a property with
dellistener (handle, propertyname, "persistent")

This change will allow us to fix the known issues with subplot.

Occasionally, I see some strange results on MacOS. Can someone else confirm this behavior?
