Happens on Unix too, and no: it doesn't make sense...

I believe the blunder is in here:
    else {
        o <- rev(order(as.numeric(groups)))
        x <- x[o]
        groups <- groups[o]
        offset <- cumsum(c(0, diff(as.numeric(groups)[o]) != 
            0))
        y <- 1:n + 2 * offset
        ylim <- range(0, y + 2)
    }

groups is getting ordered *twice* there. Dropping the [o] in the
diff() makes the extra gaps go away, but now the group labels look
wrong. Oh, well.
