Er, right, sorry. Here's a version of the effect, for inclusiont with
the report:

postscript()
x <- seq(0,2*pi,,50000)
plot(x,sin(x),type="l")
dev.off()

Count reduced from the original 200000 to show quantization effect.

That isn't actually the same effect, but both examples (with 50000 and 
200000) work in R-patched now.
