I was stunned to see this topic on Statalist as only yesterday I reported a bug to Tech Desk with the same title. In my case each single graph looked fine, but, when combined, the axis titles overwrote the axis labels. The workround was to add "nodraw" and "name" to each sub-graph. Then the combined plot had each graph the same size with correctly positioned labels. It seems related to windowing. Try adding nodraw to your first two commands.
On the way, I found that "xsize(5) ysize(5)" did not give equal-length axes when printed. A small discrepancy but measurable. I guess it's related to fitting in the titles, but it appears you need aspectratio(1) to apply to the plotting area.
Happy statting
