Looking in the matplotlib-devel mailing-list, I found a brand new  
version of the boxplot method (written by Rob Clewley).  This method  
allows me to have a monochrome plot.  This is quite better.

I then modified Rob's code for getting linewidth (that's 100% hacking  
- I'm not proud of it).

Sorry for the disturbance.
