st: Correct labeling in egenmore axis()?

Follow up on my earlier graphing issue.
It looks like if the label-option in egenmore (ssc) axis() is not doing
what it supposed to do or am I overlooking something again?
-----
sysuse bpwide, clear
tempfile tf1 tf2
statsby mean1=r(mean) ub1=r(ub) lb1=r(lb) N1=r(N), by(agegrp sex)
saving(`tf1'): ci bp_before
statsby mean2=r(mean) ub2=r(ub) lb2=r(lb) N2=r(N), by(agegrp sex)
saving(`tf2'): ci bp_after
dsconcat `tf1' `tf2'
sort agegrp sex mean1
egen axis = axis(mean1 agegrp sex), label(agegrp sex)
replace axis = axis[_n-1] if axis == .
egen group = group(agegrp sex), label
----
Here I get as labels in axis correctly labelled cases and incorrect
labelled cases whereas group() does the labelling correctly.
Correct labels are 30-45 Male
Incorrect labels are 46-59 or Male
