I checked in a fix for the text used to describe the colors in demo blocks here (http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/ba8c5dbc5cc0).

I changed the priority to low.  I'd like to have this done at some point, but I mostly come across the issue when using the dump_plot_demos script to compare the output of the various graphic toolkits with Matlab.  Since that happens only once a release cycle, and has already passed for 4.2.0, it's not crucial to correct this right now.

Thanks for noticing that, I had actually tried to run a few demos when I changed the default color order, but missed this one.

The BIST tests and demo blocks were based on the old ColorOrder property that had blue and green as the first two colors.  That is not the case and often times the demo text, such as the titles of plots or the legend keys is incorrect.  It's not a huge showstopper of a bug, but the point of the text is so human viewers can verify that the plot is accurately produced.

As an example,


demo legend 4
