Yes, this seems to be a bug. The reason is the new panel argument in
plot.mts. Every single plot in plot.mts is set up by:

        plot(x[, i], axes = FALSE, xlab="", ylab="",
             log = log, col = col, bg = bg, pch = pch, ann = ann,
             type="n", ...)
        panel(x[, i], col = col, bg = bg, pch = pch, ...)

And I suspect you don't really need to pass the ... argument to
plot(type="n") because what you really see is what panel produces after
that. If you remove the ... in plot the example above works. It also
works, if both commands are replaced by a single

        panel(x[, i], axes = FALSE, xlab="", ylab="",
             log = log, col = col, bg = bg, pch = pch, ann = ann,
             ...)

Hope this helps
