Oh, wow... we didn't think anybody was using that "misfeature". This was a
bug we fixed for 1.3, in that users complained that calling plt.title()
would update an existing title, but plt.suptitle() would not (multiple
calls would just result in text overlaid on top of each other). We fixed
this for 1.3 so that there is a single text object that is kept and is
revised in subsequent calls to suptitle(). To get what you want, you will
have to consolidate those strings into one.
Cheers!
