Currently `hgsave` saves unrestorable private graphics functions which become
invalid callbacks after hgload.
E.g:

octave:1> bar(1:3)
octave:2> fname = [tempname() ".ofig"];
octave:3> hgsave (gcf, fname);  close all;
octave:4> h = hgload (fname);   unlink (fname);
octave:5> close all
error: invalid function handle, unable to find function for
@rm_axes_listeners
error: called from
    delete at line 73 column 5
    closereq at line 40 column 5
    close at line 121 column 5


Dmitri.
