Well, going as far as 

ecdf(~stp | year*abil, group = bonus,
     scales = 
     list(x = list(relation = "free", 
          limits = list(c(0, 60), c(0, 280), c(0, 60), c(0, 280)))))

should be easy enough. Unfortunately, it's not as easy to get rid of the 
labels from the first row. It's still possible, if you are desperate 
enough, but it's not very clean:

ecdf(~stp | year*abil, group = bonus,
     scales = 
     list(x = list(relation = "free", 
          limits = list(c(0, 60), c(0, 280), c(0, 60), c(0, 280)),
          at = list(TRUE, TRUE, NULL, NULL))),
     par.settings = list(layout.heights = list(axis.panel = c(1, 0))))

(this is assuming R 2.0.x)
