st: Twoway-graph appears different in version 11 and version 12

I can't find the reason why the following -twoway- syntax produces 
graphs that look vastly different in Stata 12 as opposed to Stata 11 (in 
Stata 11.2 it appears as intended whereas in Stata 12.1 it does not).
Note: If you run the complete demonstration below, two files (graphs 
created by my own Stata versions 11.2 and 12.1) will be copied into your 
temp-directory and erased afterwards (but it will not overwrite files 
that exist already) - I hope the longer line containing 
"title("Verhaltensprobleme ..." will not get broken in the email sent:
