The subplot function (at least the one in the TeachingDemos package and the copy
in Hmisc) only does rectangles. Clipping regions are also limited to rectangles
currently. There are external tools (gimp, imagemagick) that may me of use or
triangles and other shapes can be approximated by enough small rectangles. If
you give a bit more detail about what you are trying to do then we can give more
specific help.
