#3 pdf/eps from surface plot crashing on Mac OS 10.6

This is a known problem of buggy implementations of PS/PDF shadings. But if you have the Python Imaging Library PIL installed, you can readily produce an output file with a
rendered version of the shading, e.g., by using

g.writeEPSfile(write_mesh_as_bitmap=True)

In the example of density plot, I tried to use "surface plot" instead of "density plot",

g = graph.graphxy(height=8, width=8, x=graph.axis.linear(min=re_min, max=re_max, title=r"$\Re(c)$"), y=graph.axis.linear(min=im_min, max=im_max, title=r'$\Im(c)$')) g.plot(graph.data.points(d, x=1, y=2, color=3, title="iterations"), [graph.style.surface()]) # <<-- I changed this line

g.writeEPSfile() g.writePDFfile()

Interestingly, I cannot open any of the files (EPS or PDF) using Mac OS 10.6: it crashes either the Finder or the Preview.

I have no clue why this is happening. Can anyone reproduce this behavior on a Linux/Windows machine to confirm it is a problem of the OS?
