Bug report

Bug summary

Increasing marker size leads to markers that escape the legend boundaries (or even the figure)

Code for reproduction

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

a, = plt.plot(np.random.uniform(size=10), np.random.uniform(size=10), '*',  markersize=40)

b, = plt.plot(np.random.uniform(size=10), np.random.uniform(size=10), '*',  markersize=40)
plt.legend([a, b],
           ["training data/target", "test data", "test prediction"],
           ncol=3, loc=(.1, 1.025))

Actual outcome

Legend box grows to capture whole marker.

Similarly it can happen that the markers overlap:
