The subplot function (at least the one in the TeachingDemos package and the copy in Hmisc) only does rectangles. Clipping regions are also limited to rectangles currently. There are external tools (gimp, imagemagick) that may me of use or triangles and other shapes can be approximated by enough small rectangles. If you give a bit more detail about what you are trying to do then we can give more specific help.
