well, I found he bug but in the attempt to fix it, I broke rrd_graph, I have
to work on it some more ... the problem is that in your rrd file there are
some REALY large numbers ... 1e150 and the like ... using PRINT %f produces
a buffer ooverflow ... now the most simple solution would be to go to
snprintf, but most free implementations have problems dysplaying floats ...

The other problem is, why are there so large numers in your rrd ,,,
