[ncl-talk] Bug in gsn_histogram

Sorry to come back with another binning issue, but I've found a similar
problem in gsn_histogram.

This time, the problem only happens with the right-most bin, and only when
the data can equal the bin boundary, such as with integer data.

Here's some simple sample code and a plot. Notice how in the first group of
figures, when the data is a float, the bars move seamlessly to the left as
the range increases.

In the second half of the figures, the data are integer, and sometimes will
equal the top boundary. In this case, the rightmost bar changes before as a
new bar is added to its right.

Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions. Thanks!

    Carl
