i.spectral uses it (unless you use the -g option).

PyPlot can't be considered a *replacement* for any d.* modules until
there's a defined mechanism to use it such that:

1. GRASS_PNGFILE etc are honoured.

2. Any plot where the axes use spatial coordinates aligns with maps
generated by d.* commands.

#2 isn't applicable to d.linegraph, but #1 is.

If you're concerned about maintenance, I'd suggest rewriting
d.linegraph as a script which uses d.graph for output.
