  lost dimensions in hpgl ( "selfscaling" )

Bug description:
  Im sorry, my english is as is.

  Lets make an experiment :

  1. Open new Inkscape and make an rectangle 100x50 mm, then <shift+ctrl+C> .
  2. Save as .svg format and open - rectangle is 100x50 mm. OK.
  3. Save as .plt format and open - rectangle is 124,750x62,250 mm now. Very bad !!! (Import is the same).
  4. But it is not all : 124,750 / 62,250 == 2,004 not 2 (100 / 50 == 2).
      We can scaling 124,750x62,250 to 100x49,9 or 100,2x50 but 49,9 != 50 && 100 != 100,2.
      Maybe it is good tolerance for vinyl cutting, but not metal milling.
      And what when we forgot scaling ?
