I was recently trying to make use of the ytic() using capability with a 
boxxyerrorbars plot. I get a 'Too many columns in using specification' 
error. Is this a bug?  Gnuplot 4.6.4.

Here is a sample case:

# test case for too many columns bug for boxxyerrorbars

xspc = 0.045
yspc = .48
plot '-' using 1:2:($1-xspc):($1+xspc):($2-yspc):($2+yspc):3:ytic(4) w 
boxxyerrorbars fs solid fc pal
.1 1 0 lab1
.2 1 1 lab1
.3 1 7 lab1
.4 1 2 lab1
.5 1 3 lab1
.6 1 4 lab1

.1 2 2 lab2
.2 2 3 lab2
.3 2 5 lab2
.4 2 0 lab2
.5 2 1 lab2
.6 2 2 lab2

Any ideas?
