On my Windows system it looks ok to me but if you want to eliminate
the overwriting this will suppress the mtext and axis annotations on
the first dotchart call.

library(proto)
p <- proto(dotchart = dotchart, mtext = list, axis = list)
with(p, dotchart(VADeaths, gdata = mean.values))
par(new = TRUE)
dotchart(VADeaths, gdata = median.values, pch = 20)
