Details:

Plotting two subplots, one above the other, in a figure. Adding a legend to
both, with the location set to “northwest” or “northeast.” The legend
on the upper plot is at the correct x position, but centered on the plot’s
upper border in y. The legend on the lower plot is in the expected location.

The legend position is correct when subplots are arranged side-by-side. Did
not try other arrangements or location parameters.

The workaround is to make the plot, then move the top legend to the expected
position with get and set position commands.

The environment is Octave: 4.4.0, graphics toolkit: qt, Mac OS X
ProductVersion: 10.14.2, BuildVersion: 18C54.

Attached code producing the effect is legendloc.m; screenshot with annotations
is legendloc.jpg.
