    _______________________________________________________

Details:

The "scatterplots" produced by the GRAPH command have the potential to do
wierd things, incluiding crash.

the problem is, that the xrchart_draw_scatterplot function (called by the
output window's expose callback) tries to access data in the current file. 
However this data may have changed, or may even no longer exist.

To see demonstrate the problem call:

GRAPH /SCATTERPLOT (BIVARIATE) = x WITH y.

NEW FILE.

and run this in the GUI.    It will probably crash.
