I resolved the problem by downloading the 3.7 version of gnuplot and compiling it myself.
I had downloaded a pre-packaged version of 3.5 previously.  gnuplot is now executing
but I need to create output that I can post to a webpage.  Looks like GIF is out of the
question and I'm having problems creating the required libraries for PNG.
