[Ifeffit] Two plotting related glitches in Athena

Hi Ian,

The first one seems like a gnuplot bug.  Athena is not involved in 
zooming or repositioning the view window in the way that you demonstrate 
in the video.  I will look into whether this is a known bug in gnuplot. 
  If I find a solution, I'll update the installer.

The second one is unambiguously an Athena bug.  Thanks.  I'll look into it.
