Bug in Plot (PlotLabel)

The following function invocation works as would be expected:

		Plot[x,{x,1,10}, PlotLabel->"This is a test of a bug\n"]

However, if there is nothing but spaces (one or more) trailing the line feed,
the plot is shifted out of the frame, either partially, or completely:

		Plot[x,{x,1,10}, PlotLabel->"This is a test of a bug\n "]

On the other hand, if there is another "printable" character in the
string, the plot comes out as expected (I assume "printable"; I have
not tested all characters, in fact, I have only tested ".").

		Plot[x,{x,1,10}, PlotLabel->"This is a test of a bug\n . "]
