[R] legend: interplay between title and y.intersp

[Sigbert Klinke]

Hi,

thanks, but this does not solve the problem. If I make y.intersp large 
enough then it works properly. Maybe I was not clear enough: I want to 
have the small distance between the lines and no overlap between the 
title and the lines.
