No problems.

I've determined tonight that it was working fine in org 8.2.10, but
the problem you report is in org 8.3.1. There are many changes in
ob-core.el, but little in ob-dot.el or ob-eval.el, so further
investigation is required. I'll continue plugging. I really like
building graphs using dot through org-mode, so I'd love to see this
fixed (e.g. I had to revert to LibreOffice Draw today!).

Thanks,

Éibhear
