Building Octave 4.0.0-rc4 on CentOS 5 and using gnuplot 4.0.0. This causes the tests for legend, copyobj, and hgsave to fail. This version of gnuplot is too old according to multiple posts on the mailing list and the web

A simple example
I understand that gnuplot communication is done via pipes, so the version may change since Octave is built. But then, should this be checked at runtime? Or at least a warning during the build that the version is too old but can be updated later.
Also, the error at the end about invalid call to strcat seems weird.
