Not a bug, and I think I know what your problem is. I could be wrong here,
but it has happened to me before...

CHECK YOUR ARGUMENTS CAREFULLY FOR STRAY COMMAS.

I bet you have the command: line(x1,y1,x2,y2,)

At first glance, it looks like nothing is wrong, but if you check at the
end there is an extra comma which will make it choke ;) If that doesn't
work, then it's anyone's guess.
