Sorry, but as you can see here: http://lk.storkhole.cz/vole.png
myself and this version disagree :-(

$ rrdtool --version
RRDtool 1.4.7  Copyright 1997-2012 by Tobias Oetiker <tobi at oetiker.ch>
               Compiled Aug  9 2012 21:46:48

Anyway, the destination system is OpenBSD; I managed to compile the
latest SVN version, because the one in packages is 1.2.30, and after a
while it worked (I'll send the patches separately).  An empty graph
shows the right side scales (left is 0.0 - 1.0 and right 0m - 125m),
but after it's been filled with data, it doesn't:

I'll be working with the SVN version now; the script remained more or
less the same (I know, the values are nonsense):

Thanks for your help so far.  First thing I noticed is that OpenBSD
(and possibly others) doesn't have EPROTO in its errno.h, so I changed
it to EINVAL, which is more common.  I know, it's in the POSIX.1-2008,
but why not use something more common here?  What do you think?
Should I rather try to push them a constant they don't use anywhere?
