[let me add: ... and not to axis()...]
But you can use:
par(cex.axis=3)
barplot(1:3, names.arg=1:3, xlab="x", ylab="y")

... as expected.

In this case (no symbols are drawn inside the plot, ...) also expected.

Without looking at the code not so easy as the workaround described
above. An example:
barplot(1:3, names.arg=1:3, xlab="x", ylab="y")
axis(1, at=1:3)
