I am happy to report I have just solved the long-standing

results from other languages.  See commit 35eafc1 for details.

This breakthrough means that an absolutely perfect PostScript
difference report is finally within our grasp again after ~6 years
without that.  "All" that needs to be done is to implement the color
bar parts of example 33 in OCaml. I will take responsibility for that
implementation.

DONE.  See
<https://sourceforge.net/p/plplot/plplot/ci/a7be76715300e829523be309c64d99b1b28c1bcc/>
and the updated version of README.release for the details.

In sum, we now have a clean PostScript difference report for the first
time in many years (i.e., the standard examples written in all our
supported languages give the same PostScript results for all those
languages), and I am happy I was able to learn enough about our OCaml
binding implementation and the language itself to fix this
long-standing issue.
