 Reported by ahf in #tor-dev on February 19, 2016.  Example:
 https://metrics.torproject.org/versions.html

 Possible fix could be to use gray for Other, because that line is always
 in the graph, and keep using colors for actual versions.

 Another alternative could be to switch to a faceted plot with multiple
 time plots beneath each other.  That would make it a bit harder to compare
 absolute numbers, but it would also remove the problem of colors behind
 difficult to distinguish.

 Or maybe there are even smarter visualizations available?
